A day after Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced that the government would adopt a zero-tolerance policy against fee hikes, several parents staged a protest outside the Delhi Directorate of Education office on Wednesday.

They demanded an immediate rollback of the increased school fees and urged authorities to intervene.

There have been long-standing complaints by parents and guardians against "irregular and exorbitant" fee hikes by private unaided schools in the national capital. They have also alleged coercive practices by schools, including denial of admit cards for board examinations and threats to strike off names of students over non-payment of what they describe as unauthorized fees.
