CBSE schools in Gurugram unhappy with minority query in form

GURUGRAM: The CBSE has made it obligatory for faculties to provide information on collection of scholars in the common/SC/ST/OBC classes and the ones belonging to minority teams — Muslims, Christians, Jains, Sikhs — at the on-line affiliated faculty information gadget (OASIS). According to officers of colleges in Gurugram, they have got filled up the shape however it's strictly towards their secular principles.
The round asking faculties to fill the shape was issued in June 2018 and it imposed a penalty of Rs 20,000 per month on faculties failing to take action inside of three months. In November, a Delhi faculty filed a case in the Delhi high courtroom, refusing to to fill some sections and the courtroom gave a verdict in favour of the college.

Jyoti Sharma, principal, Greenwoord Public School, Sector nine, stated, “We have filled up the shape however this isn't proper. On one hand, we talk about a secular India, and at the other, we ask for collection of minority scholars.” Rashmi Malik, principal, Salwan Public School, stated, “CBSE is an examination board. I don’t know what it plans to do by collecting information on how many scholars belong to SC/ST/OBC or minority classes?”

The shape does now not even pass over school individuals and asks faculties to reveal whether they belong to minority teams. Pooja Puri, principal of Manav Rachna International School, stated, “I don’t consider this form is necessary. As a school, we have to fill it since the order comes from CBSE. But as a principal, I have by no means categorised lecturers or scholars based on their caste, creed or religion.”

Even despite the fact that the ideas, assets stated, could be stored confidential, educationists are wondering why faculties are being pressured to give such main points. Yashpal Yadav, director, CD International School, stated, “An examination board shouldn’t be asking details about lecturers.”

According to CBSE officers, U-DISE may require parts of the ideas and they need extra time to elucidate the same.


Michael Williams, dean of Mount Carmel School, New Delhi, who went to courtroom towards the order, stated, “CBSE launched OASIS two years in the past. I had written to CBSE then, announcing it was an invasion of privacy and I could now not provide main points of my personnel such as their home addresses.” He, then again, did fill up the shape in 2016 but if Aadhaar main points of students and parents were sought in OASIS 2.0 this year, Williams refused to budge.


“OASIS 2.0 is in sync with U-DISE and connected to registration of Class X and XII scholars. If I don’t fill up the shape, scholars gained’t be ready to take a seat for the board assessments. Earlier, the schooling department would send the U-DISE paperwork and we weren’t asked to classify scholars at the foundation of religion. However, this year, CBSE has sent the shape,” he stated.


After CBSE began looking for a penalty of Rs 20,000 per month from the college, it went to courtroom. “The courtroom has stated that CBSE, an examination board, can't ask for Aadhaar main points of personnel or scholars. It directed faculties to go into information as according to their choice,” stated Williams.
