The Delhi High Court has stayed an order passed by a single judge allowing private schools to charge annual fees from students. The order was challenged by the Delhi government, which argued that the single judge had erred in allowing private schools to charge annual fees. The division bench of the High Court observed that the issue required a detailed hearing and stayed the operation of the single judge's order.

The matter will be heard next on a date to be notified by the court. The stay order has brought relief to parents who were worried about the additional financial burden.
