Shajapur, Due to the decision to board class 5th, 8th in the middle session and the demand of payment of RTE amount for the last two years, private school operators have decided to keep their schools closed on Tuesday.

In this regard, the school operators have also submitted a memorandum to the DEO office, in which it was told that the private school operators have given a state-wide call for bandh. There is a demand of school operators that class V and VIII board should be done from next session and RTE for session 2020-21 should be paid before Deepawali. The operators told that the education department has not paid the amount of RTE for two years, due to which all the schools of the district will be closed for a day and protest will be held. Private school director Jaiprakash Soni told that the education department decided to conduct class 5th and 8th board exams in half the session. This decision should have been taken before the commencement of the session. Now this decision should be implemented from the next session. Apart from this, children are being taught by us under RTE, their fees have not been paid by the education department for two years, due to which there is a problem in the operation of the school.
