CAs audit private schools

Starting from Tuesday , a group of empanelled chartered accountants are studying the books of 97 schools that have submitted proposals for fee-hike this year.
 
This process of submitting proposals and verification is based on the direction of the Delhi high court given in January, 2016.
 
Both chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and deputy chief minister and education minis ter Manish Sisodia, addressed the chartered accountants engaged for the job on Tuesday .“The exercise will be conducted by the empanelled chartered accountancy firm, under the Ernst &Young Foundation, and the report will be submitted to the Delhi Government in the second week of August.The Department of Education has received 97 proposals from various schools for increasing fees,“ says the government's statement.
 
“Education is a top priority for the Delhi Government and our objective is to ensure that education is not commercialised and parents and students are not exploited by a few unscrupulous private managements,“ said Kejriwal adding that it's not so much an “audit“ as an “investigation.“
 
Sisodia, according to the statement, “sought to clarify that the state government didn't want to control private schools but only wanted them to abide by the directives of the Department of Education.“
