You derive some sadistic pleasure by depriving the students (of studies)? DELHI HIGH COURT

- Shruti Kakkar

NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Friday deferred its decision on staying Delhi Public School (DPS), Dwarka's move to expel 32 students over their apparent non-payment of increased fees, even as it indicated that the school appeared to have violated legal procedures by failing to issue prior show cause notices.

The court said it would await the outcome of a related case — in which over 100 parents have urged the court to direct the Directorate of Education (DoE) and the lieutenant governor to take over the school's administration — before passing any interim orders and posted the matter for hearing on Monday.

A bench of justice Sachin Datta, hearing a plea by the parents of the expelled students seeking their reinstatement, noted that Rule 35(4) of the Delhi School Education Rules, 1973, requires schools to provide a reasonable opportunity to parents or guardians to respond before striking off a student's name from the rolls.
