Nursery admissions: HC stays govt decision to scrap management quota

Page 1

Delhi High Court has stayed AAP government’s order scrapping management quota in nursery admissions in private unaided schools, saying the decision was taken without the authority of law.

It also stayed the Delhi government’s January 6 order with regard to 11 other admission criteria, including issues like proven track record of parents during admission of their children, music and sports, that were also scrapped.

Justice Manmohan in his interim order said that the government’s January 6 decision was also in contravention of the Lieutenant Governor’s 2007 order on nursery admissions in private unaided schools. -
