The Uttarakhand government has announced the creation of an advisory committee to tackle the issue of excessive fees charged by private schools across the state.
This development came to light during a High Court hearing, where representatives disclosed measures to help parents lodge complaints about exorbitant charges.
At the heart of the controversy is a public interest litigation by Deepchandra Pandey, who claims many private schools impose elevated fees, alongside requirements to purchase school materials from specific shops, potentially inflating costs.
