HC seeks Delhi govt's stand on plea for audit of private school accounts

• Delhi High Court seeks Delhi government's response on PIL for regular audit of private unaided school accounts.
• NGO Justice for All filed the plea, citing violation of Delhi School Education Act's statutory mandate.
• Petitioner argues lack of audits leads to financial opaqueness, commercialization, and exorbitant fees by private schools.
• Audit is crucial to ensure funds are used for school betterment, not siphoned off or diverted for personal gain.
• Despite inspections of over 1,624 schools, no audits conducted; many schools increased fees by up to 200%.
