Dear Surjeet: The WC Act has metamorphosed into Employee Compensation Act 1923 from 18.01.2010. The Schedule II of the Act lists the persons included in the definition of 'employee' as per the Act. There is no mention of employed persons in the educational institutions therein. So they are not included. KK
