Live Law  

The Bombay High Court on Thursday asked the Chairman of the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary & Higher Secondary Education to consider a representation seeking refund of class X and XII board examination fees, in view of the cancellation of the examinations this year due to COVID19 pandemic. Opposing the PIL, State's advocate Bhupesh Samant said the fees were nominal, and steps had been taken for internal assessment. After hearing both parties, the bench asked the Chairman to consider the petitioner's representation and pass a reasoned order in case he decides to refuse the refund within 4 weeks. In the event, the prayer cannot be accepted, a reasoned order may be passed… If indeed the concern appears to the Chairman to be of substance, we hope and trust that the Chairman shall pass appropriate orders to refund the fees or part of it."
