Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted permission to file Special Leave Petitions concerning the 'Admission Order' issued under Section 3(1) of the Delhi School Education Act, 1973. The Court stayed certain clauses of the Admission Order that were challenged as violative of Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution, specifically those relating to interviews with children and the requirement of prior approval from the Director of Education for admission criteria. The Court held that the guidelines accepted by the High Court could not be challenged in light of the Admission Order, and thus, the matter requires further examination.
