Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the Andhra Pradesh Educational Institutions (Regulation of Admission and Prohibition of Capitation Fee) Act, 1983, particularly Rule 4 regarding fee fixation for unaided institutions. The Court held that the State's interim order fixing fees for 2019-2020 at previous rates violated the procedural requirements of Rule 4, which mandates a proper fee fixation process by the AFRC. Consequently, the Court quashed the interim order and directed adherence to the established regulatory framework for fee determination.
