Delhi HC allows city private schools to set their own guidelines for nursery admissions

New Delhi, Nov 28 (IBNS): The Delhi High Court on Friday allowed the city's private schools to formulate their own guidelines for nursery admissions.
The direction quashed the guidelines of city government with respect to the general category seats.
 
The High Court has also ruled that right to decide the school of a child should lie with the parents and not with the government.
 
It said that the administrative autonomy of private unaided schools cannot be restrained by way of office orders.
 
The HC in its order upheld the 2007 Ganguly committee recommendations on nursery admissions. 
 
It observed that the government does not have the authority to make guidelines on the admission criteria.
 
The Delhi L-G had earlier taken the authority on to decide the guidelines for the nursery admission process.
 
This has resulted in huge protests from the private schools.
