Delhi Private School Strikes Off 4 Class 12 Students Over Fee Dispute

• A private school in Mayur Vihar, East Delhi, removed four Class 12 students' names from its rolls due to non-payment of fees.
• Parents allege the dispute arose after they refused to pay the school's hiked fees.
• The school issued a notice on March 7, stating names would be struck off from March 9 if outstanding dues weren't cleared.
• The institution cited Rule 35 of the Delhi School Education Rules, 1973, which permits striking off names for fee non-payment.
