Delhi High Court to Decide on Stay of School Fee Regulation Committee Mandate

The Delhi Public School Society and other private school associations have petitioned the Delhi High Court to stay a February 1 government notification mandating the formation of school-level fee regulation committees (SLFRCs) within 10 days. They argue the timeline is impractical due to the physical draw of lots required for committee selection. The government contends the timeline adjustments are permissible and aim to prevent excessive fees. The court reserved its order, expected on February 28.
