School not giving TC to my daughter
My daughter was student of class V of a CBSE affiliated school in Bangalore. I applied for TC in April, 2021. But I didn't get the TC yet. They entered the wrong parents details of my daughter at the Karnataka Government site. Now the school is saying that they need to update the parents' names on the Government site. When that will be done, I will get the TC. In the meantime, my daughter's new school is asking for TC from me. But I am unable to provide the same, because Orchids school didn't provide me the TC yet. I am feeling helpless. Kindly help me in this regard.

school is not willing to provide TC complain to board to which school is affiliated .
2) As per the Right to Education Act, no child should discontinue education because of the delay in issuing a TC.
3) If the authorities of the school failed to issue the TC even after a month, the same should be brought to the notice of the deputy director of public instructions or the block education officer, and they should take action as per the classification control and appeal (CCA) rules,
4) draw attention to provisions of section 5 of right to education act wherein Head teacher or teacher in charge is required to give immediate TC certificate . failure to give TC certificate invites disciplinary action against said head teacher

Dear Sir/Ma'am
A per Indian education laws, no child's education should be discontinued due to a delay in issuing a Transfer Certificate.
You can complain about this issue to the District Education Officer.
Thank you
- As per law , TC is not mandatory for taking admissions in a school and further the school cannot deny to issue transfer certificate under any circumstances.
- Since the parents details wrongly entered by the the school , then for updating the correct details they are accountable.
- You can lodge a compliant before the education officer for the same .
You can approach the district education officer of the district that the school falls within with a complaint agaisnt the school authorities seeking their intervention and direction to the school authorities to issue the TC expeditiously.
Alternately you can issue a legal notice to the school authorities demanding the TC, failing which you can inform the school that they would be responsible for the legal consequences if they do not comply with the demand to furnish TC.
You can get the email address of the district education officer from the State government education ministry website too, however it is advisable that you send a complaint directly to the DEO in writing by a registered post which will be more effective.
You need to send a notice to the said school for the same. As per the rules they need to issue TC
