Notably, schools, despite being non-functional amid pandemic, were collecting arbitrary fees from the parents.

Following the complaint, directions were issued by the court to the schools to upload the fee information.

On the directions of the Supreme Court, the State Education Department has directed all the District Education Officers to get the fee-related information uploaded by private schools at the earliest.
