A renowned Convent school has discontinued providing education to two of its students after finding that the BPL cards used by them were forged. The cards were evaluated by a special committee set up by the Gurgaon District Administration. District Collector of Gurgaon PC Meena on Wednesday said that the special committee had come to the conclusion after a thorough evaluation.
Meena, however, assured that he will make sure that the students do not suffer at any cost. He said, “We will take help of district level organisation for granting admission to the two students in other schools and make sure that their future is not affected.” The incident was reported on Tuesday when Rock Convent school at Sector10-A refused to admit Mona (10) and Arif Ali (11) for the next academic session after finding that they did not belong to the BPL category. Notably, a similar situation had arose last year when the school had asked them to discontinue studying from here after finding that they took admission on the basis of forged documents. But with the intervention of the District Administration, the students were
allowed to continue their studies. Mona and Arif Ali have been studying in the school for the past seven years and they were granted admission on the basis of their BPL cards.
“Last year, I had recommended the school not to expel the two students. But on the basis of a High Court order, the BPL cards were rechecked this year and the cards were found to be fake,” said PC Meena.
