Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid said stateless children whose citizenship applications are being processed can attend school. He stressed that citizenship application documents submitted to the National registration Department should suffice for the schools to enable the affected children to pursue their education. Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid said this in a media briefing after attending the Home Ministry's monthly assembly in Putrjaya on Thursday. He was responding to reports of a seven-year-old girl known as Darshana, who had been denied admission to a school in Seremban as she was classified as a Non-citizen. (Soundbite Of Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi / Dpm Subtitle: If there are schools that does not accept them, their parents or the guardians can refer their case to the district education offices or the ministry.)
