Delhi HC scraps govt order capping pvt school fee
Hindustan TimesThe Delhi high court on Friday set aside the Delhi government’s April 2018 order restraining 325 private schools built on state land from raising their fees, in a potential blow to students and their parents. On Friday, justice C Hari Shankar quashed the order of the DoE of April 13, 2018, whereby it had directed that any private, unaided, recognised school running on land allotted by the Delhi Development Authority or any other government agency could not increase their fees without the prior permission of the directorate. The plea, filed through advocate Kamal Gupta, had contended that the decision of the Delhi government would lead to a delay in schools implementing the Seventh Pay Commission’s recommendations. On October 17, 2017, the Delhi government had issued an order stating that schools can increase their fees to the tune of 15% in line with the Seventh Pay Commission’s recommendations provided they get their financial accounts audited by the government in a fixed period of time.
