Ahmedabad Sees Drop in RTE Applications This Year

The number of applications under the Right to Education (RTE) Act in Ahmedabad has declined compared to last year.

Around 2.06 lakh applications were received for over 84,000 seats in private schools, marking a decrease from the previous year’s figures.

Experts suggest that factors such as awareness levels, documentation challenges, and demographic shifts may have contributed to the decline.

Despite the drop, the RTE scheme continues to play a crucial role in ensuring access to education for disadvantaged children.

Authorities are expected to analyze the trend and implement measures to improve participation in future admission cycles.
