Amit Kapoor held a strong demonstration demanding age relaxation and restoration of admission of first class children.

Tighten the nexus of uniforms and books, education department should form a task force: Amit Kapoor
Jammu, 18 March. Under the leadership of President of Parents Association Jammu, Amit Kapoor, parents and children demonstrated strongly outside Hari Singh Park today and strongly demanded restoration of age relaxation and admission of first class children. Along with this, he also demanded to tighten the nexus of uniforms and books.
During this, the protesters raised slogans loudly regarding their demands. Addressing the protesters, Amit Kapoor said that the children who are currently enrolled should be given age relaxation so that their future is not affected. He said that last year LG Manoj Sinha had given relaxation of one year but the children who are still enrolled should be given relaxation of two years. He said that all schools should be instructed to enroll only three plus children in nursery so that children do not face any problem regarding age in the first class under the new education policy. But the children who are enrolled should be given age relaxation and they should be given admission.
Along with this, he also demanded from the Education Department to constitute a task force to break the nexus of uniforms and books. He said that according to the order of the High Court, all schools should have the same books, but still some mafia schools are installing books as per their own wish and are also selling books and wardis themselves. He demanded the education department and its higher officials to form a task force to stop this. He said that strict action should be taken against those mafia schools which are doing their own thing.
He has requested LG Manoj Sinha that in the same manner as he had given age relaxation to the children last year, the children who are still enrolled should be given age relaxation and their enrollment should be reinstated. He warned that if the government did not accept his demands, he would intensify the protests in the coming days.
