7. PRESS STATEMENT For immediate release SAINT CLAIRE COLLEGE Bengaluru Email : [email protected] DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE BACKWARD CLASSES This is to address the issue of discrimination and abuse of backward classes in our institution. In 1980 to mark the 75th birth anniversary of the founder the college initiated the "Education for All" scholarship program to help students from poor backgrounds to receive quality education. This program did so well that it was highly praised and was also awarded by the state government in 1990. The college provides its students with experienced faculty from prestigious institutions and also has numerous extracurricular activities for the students to take part in. However, the institute's management was unaware of recent events in which a few teachers mistreated low-income children by denying them access to the same resources as their peers. The recent issue of faculty member abuse and harassment has filled our institution with sadness and horror. We have taken the necessary steps to correct the situation and ensure that no further errors occur. In accordance with the government's Right to Education policy, our institute supports student diversity and encourages backward-class education. We would investigate the situation with greater sensitivity and concern. xxxxxxxxx
