The Act was passed by the Indian Parliament in 2009 and came into effect on 1st April, 2010.

These children are provided free education in private institutions, with the government reimbursing the cost. 3% out of this 25% has to be reserved for Children with Special Needs (CWSN). The DoE Secretary, Shri B.S. Aggarwal emphasized on the importance of the RTE Act and its timely implementation and compliance by the school authorities. Further, Shri R.P. Singh, the resource person elaborated on the history and enforcement about the act, followed by Shri R.K. Sharma, the Principal of C-Block School about the practical aspect of RTE Act in detail.
