The School Education Department took to Twitter to announce this. It said: “Director RSK Dhanaraju S said that the parents of the children whose applications have been made under RTE, take the original copy of the documents given in the application to the nearest public education center, which is usually a government high school or higher secondary school, for verification.”

The School Education Department this year has also launched a mobile application called RTE MP Mobile App for information on admission including private schools around them and the seats reserved in the schools. Details on eligibility, verification centre and verification officers are also provided on the mobile application.
