AGARTALA, Jan 1 (TIWN): On the day of New Year when the Rastriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyaan has been kicked off across the Nation, Tripura’s guardians are protesting here for the right of admission to govt. school. Reportedly, when the Central govt trying to give ever students Education, but the a section of students were derived of admission. Tripura govt undertook Golden Valley H. S (+2) school in 2002, and from that time a nursery was also adopted with that named Golden Valley Kinder Garden School. It was said that all the students of Golden Valley Kinder Garden will get chance to take admission in Golden Valley H. S (+2) school and also 121 students name for this year was chosen in this regard.

But suddenly without prior notice, through a lottery system, 75 students were taken for admission and other left deprived. 

However, guardians alleged that students who belong to ruling party family or other high profile public were given the chance for admission. 

Not only this,but during nursery time, from each and every students the school Principal Ashok Kumar Tripathi took a hefty money of Rs. 2550/- per month i.e. Rs. 30,000 in every year.
