1)Help to Poor Students:-Now, any student can claim for education with the provision of required facilities, what he needs is a little support of the government and some enthusiastic social workers.2)Expectations from Private Schools:-The Act also orders he Private educational institutions to reserve25 percent seats for children from the weaker and disadvantaged sections and this ration is always expected to be chock-a-block. Next, all the schools have been asked to admit such students without admission tests and other documental requisites. Also, the schools can't refuse the entry of students with reasons like late or early admission, full seats etc. However this decision is being followed by huge protests.3)Financial Help from Government:- Furthermore, the Finance Commission has provided a sum of Rs25,000croreto the states for implementation of the Act. Mr. Sibal has further announced that the government has full arrangements of the funds required for efficient implementation of the Act.
