The Morning Standard
|August 17, 2025
THE Delhi government has brought all 1,700 private schools in the city under a new fee regulation law, with provisions for parental participation and veto power on fee hikes, Education Minister Ashish Sood said during an event with parents.
Speaking at a "Parents' Town Hall" in Janakpuri, Sood said the Delhi School Education (Transparency in Fixation and Regulation of Fees) Bill, 2025, passed in the Monsoon Session, seeks to end arbitrary fee hikes and ensure transparency in the fee fixation process.
About 200 parents attended the interaction, where the minister explained key provisions of the law, including penalties for non-compliance. Schools that raise fees without government approval will face fines ranging from ₹1 lakh to ₹10 lakh, with double penalties if excess charges are not refunded, he said, according to an official statement.
