Separate column in admission forms

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed the Union Human Resources Development Ministry and the CBSE to create a separate column in school and college admission and examination forms to enable orphaned children staying at child care homes to indicate in it addresses of their child care homes or the names of those who take care of them as guardians. A Division Bench comprising Justice M.K. Sharma and Justice Hima Kohli passed the direction when CBSE chairman Ashok Kumar Ganguly informed the Bench that the Board had no objection to the same.
