Under the Right to Education (RTE) Act of 2009, at least 25 per cent of seats in entry-level classes — nursery, kindergarten, and Class I– have to be reserved for EWS/DG (22 per cent) and children with disabilities (3 per cent).

The application process for EWS admissions began from April 7 and the first draw was supposed to be held on April 30. However, it was postponed due to the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic. The process for general admissions in the entry level classes was also delayed by over two months this year in view of the pandemic. PTI
