The Allahabad High Court ruled that private schools in Uttar Pradesh, including those affiliated with CBSE or CISCE, must comply with the RTE Act 2009.
Justice Vinod Diwakar directed the State Government to submit school-wise data for the last five academic sessions regarding RTE admissions and complaints about capitation fees.
The court ordered the State to provide a comprehensive affidavit detailing the number of children admitted and reasons for any declined admissions to ensure enforcement of Article 21A.
