YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn the Debate tonight, we will discuss the pros and cons of The Right To Education act amendment which was passed by the Rajya Sabha. The amendment included the abolishment of the no detention policy. This has stirred a massive debate.
As per the old policy, children could not be failed in examinations, and their promotion to the next class could not be withheld up to Class 8.
The rule clarifies that will be no board examination at Class 5 and Class 8 levels but a normal examination in the school itself.
The Minister said that if a child fails in a class, it would be the teacher's responsibility to give him/ her "remedial" classes for two months and then again the child will appear for the examination.
