Ranchi: The response of parents for admission to nursery classes has been lukewarm this year. Notably, schools are taking admission through the online system since the past 20 days. They are also giving option to the parents to visit campuses and complete the admission process while following Covid protocols. Several schools like the Delhi Public School have also stopped receiving applications. School principal Dr Ram Singh said that his institution would select the students from the applications received on the basis of several factors like proximity of their residences to the school, among others. While refusing to share the exact details of applications this year, the school said that the number of applications has been significantly lower in comparison to previous years.
