NEW DELHI, SEP 29 : The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to entertain a PIL seeking a central law and uniform guidelines to deal with bullying and ragging in schools and pre-university educational institutions across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A bench comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana said the top court has already passed a judgement on the issues raised in the PIL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For implementation of the directives, a fresh petition cannot be entertained, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the bench allowed the counsel for petitioner Yadavi Aditya Rasiwasiya to give a representation to the authorities concerned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plea has named the Centre, all states and Union Territories, the Central Board of Secondary Education and the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations as parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus whereby directing Respondent Nos 1 and 2 (Central ministries) herein to frame and implement an appropriate Central legislation vis-a-vis the menace of bullying\/ragging in schools\/pre-university educational institutions,” the plea said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plea also sought directions for framing supplementary guidelines to the proposed Central legislation, which would be mandatorily implemented by schools and pre-university institutions to ensure that complaints related to bullying and ragging are effectively considered and disposed of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The petitioner sought the compulsory introduction of a subject dealing with the evils of bullying and ragging in the curriculum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plea also sought a direction to ensure that such a subject forms part of the curriculum followed by all Central and state education boards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
