We want to make it clear that we can control the hike only in primary schools, and not pre primary sections. Since the RTE is applicable from standard I, and the state can intervene only in primary sections, therefore the 25% quota should also be reserved for standard I and above. Maharashtra’s education department stated that 25% quota admission under the Right to Education (RTE) Act would be from the entry level – which could range from nursery to standard 1. However, education minister Vinod Tawde has clarified that RTE education is applicable only for children between ages 6 and 14 years.
