The Supreme Court of India questioned the Delhi government’s move to implement the private school fee regulation law after the academic year had already begun. The Court warned that hurried enforcement could have retrospective effects and disrupt schools, asking the government to reconsider limiting the exercise to 2025–26 only.
The Delhi High Court declined to stay a notification mandating private schools to form fee regulation committees. A Division Bench extended deadlines, allowing committees by January 20 and fee proposals submission by February 5 instead of earlier stipulated dates.
