of a civil court, Agarwal said, adding that due to this harrasment and suffering, his son got less marks in his exams and could not get admission in a good college.
The complainant added that in a RTI reply, the CBSE had said on February 11, 2009, that it had asked the school why recommendtions were not made for condonation of shortage of attendance in respect of 13 students, including his son. The CBSE, however, had later on agreed to condone the attendance and had issued admit card to the child.
The school, in its reply, had said Aggarwal's son was irregular since the beginning of the academic session and he had not submitted any medical certificate for it.
The bench, however, rejected its contentions saying the crux of the matter is that despite submission of the medical certificate to the school, it has not taken any step to send the papers (to CBSE) and obtain the condonation for shortage of attendance.
It also made it clear that there is no liability of the CBSE in this case.
