In a recent judgment, the Delhi High Court dismissed a PIL against a private school charging parents ₹2,000 per month for air conditioning. The court stated that such costs, akin to laboratory or smart class fees, should be borne by parents as they select schools based on facilities and associated costs. The petitioner argued that providing air conditioning was the school’s responsibility, but the court found no irregularity in the charge. The Directorate of Education is already addressing complaints on the matter, rendering the PIL unnecessary.
