33 CM Shri schools to hold admission tests, 50% seats reserved for govt students

NEW DELHI: In a major development, the Delhi government has announced that 33 CM Shri Schools across the city will conduct admission tests for Classes VI, VII, and VIII for the academic session 2025–26. The Directorate of Education (DoE) on Tuesday issued detailed guidelines for the entrance examination, which aims to identify meritorious students for entry into these model schools.
These schools, designated as 'specified category' under the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009, are envisioned as model institutions equipped with advanced infrastructure and modern pedagogical practices aligned with NEP 2020, CBSE, and NCERT norms.
The admission process is aimed at ensuring transparency and merit-based selection, with a special focus on high-performing and deserving students. Notably, 50% of the available seats will be reserved for students currently enrolled in Delhi government-run schools, including MCD, NDMC, Kendriya Vidyalayas, Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas, and government-aided schools.
Only Delhi residents currently studying in Classes V, VI, and VII in recognised schools are eligible to apply for Classes VI, VII, and VIII, respectively. A relaxation of 5% in eligibility marks will be offered to students belonging to SC/ST/OBC (non-creamy layer) and children with special needs (CWSN), as per DoE policy.
Results will be declared on September 10, and the admission process will be completed by September 15. The examination will be an OMR-based objective test, bilingual in nature, without negative marking.
Applications to be open till August 15
The online application window will remain open till August 15, with admit cards to be issued from August 23 onwards. The entrance test is scheduled for August 30.

Only RDO can demarcate area for water conservancy, rules Kerala HC

Kochi: High court has held that the revenue divisional officer (RDO) is the competent authority to demarcate the area for water conservancy while considering applications for changing the nature of unnotified land exceeding 20.2 Ares. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now In such cases, 10% of the applied land must be set apart for water conservancy measures, in accordance with Section 27A (2) of the Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act, 2008. Justice C S Dias issued the ruling in a petition by Chitranjan Thampan of Alappuzha, who sought a direction to RDO to consider his application for changing the nature of his property in the revenue records. The petitioner, who holds possession of 28.25 Ares of unnotified land, had applied to change the nature of only 25.42 Ares, excluding 10% of the total area for water conservancy as required under the Act. However, his application was rejected, prompting him to approach HC. The single bench observed that the power to demarcate the area for water conservancy is vested with the RDO. Although the applicant is required to submit a sketch showing the area proposed to be set apart for water conservancy, the RDO, based on reports from the village officer and agricultural officer, is the competent authority to demarcate and approve such an area. The applicant cannot unilaterally deduct 10% of the land and apply for the remainder. Accordingly, the court directed the petitioner to submit a fresh application along with a new sketch as stipulated under the Rules for changing the nature of the unnotified land.
