Raj, a social worker. The complainant submitted that her 12 year old son Krrish
Kapoor has 75% vision impairment and she wants to enroll him to St. Xavier’
School. She tried her best but the school authorities refused admission saying
that there was no vacancy. She also
stated that reservation of 3% seats for
persons with disabilities as per the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995 was
not being provided.

case file, it is seen that Special Director(Education), HQ had been asking the
Dy. Director(Education), District North to take appropriate action as the
matter pertains to them. However, no
response was ever received.
4. As the case is pending for more
than two years and there was no correspondence whatsoever either from

contacted and was advised to intimate the status if any known to her or advise
the complainant to get in touch with this Court. However, despite lapse of
