Karnataka High Court Protects CBSE, ICSE Schools From Coercive Action Under Govt Order Barring Collection Of Fees Above 70%
Live LawThe Karnataka High Court has directed State Authorities not to take any coercive steps against members of the Association of India Schools, affiliated to the CBSE and the ICSE for any breaches of the the government order by which it asked only for the Academic Year 2020-21 to collect only 70% Tuition Fees from the parents as collected for the academic year 2019-20 and other charges are not be collected. The court also directed management of the Institutions affiliated to the ICSE and CBSE Boards and the petitioners' Association to voluntarily put up public notices in their notice boards that they would consider individual grievances of the parents and that the institution will not insist upon the payment of full school fees in the light of the genuine grievances raised by the parents. The order passed by a single bench of Justice R Devdas said : "Nevertheless, at this juncture in order to strike a balance, this Court is of the opinion that the petitioner-Institutions are required to consider the grievance of the parents which is a genuine concern in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected the citizens of this Country and caused severe damage to their livelihood and consequently, the income of the family. The bench then said "Nevertheless, this Court is of the opinion that when the question as to the power and Authority of the State Government to give directions to the Institutions affiliated to the ICSE and CBSE Boards are pending consideration at the hand of this Court, and in the light of the submissions made by the learned Additional Advocate General before this Court in W.P.No.6185/2019, the respondent-State Authorities should not be permitted to take coercive steps."
