MP Gov Cancels Recognition of 250 Private Schools, Including 12 in Bhopal

It is reported that the recognition was revoked because these schools lacked land documents. Some school operators did not possess sufficient land as per school standards, while others lacked necessary registration papers. This led to the department taking action.

50 Schools Still Awaiting Decision

The recognition process for schools offering classes 9th to 12th in the state involves an initial application to the Divisional Joint Director. If approval is not received, a second appeal is made to the Departmental Minister. 350 private schools’ recognition cases reached the Departmental Minister. Of these, only 50 schools received recognition, while the recognition of another 50 schools has been put on hold. However, the recognition of 250 private schools has been revoked. This includes 12 schools in Bhopal, among which prominent names are Ankur Higher Secondary, Seven Hills, Preeti Higher Secondary, Rajapushpa, Parth, and Gyan Krishna School.
