Delhi High Court Upholds Cash Assistance Policy for EWS School Uniforms
The Delhi High Court dismissed a review petition challenging the government's policy to provide cash assistance instead of directly distributing school uniforms to economically weaker section students. The court found no error in its earlier ruling, stating the policy was not arbitrary or capricious and did not violate the Right to Education Act. It emphasized judicial restraint in policy matters unless decisions shock the court's conscience, noting the government's rationale about distribution difficulties was duly considered.
