Tensions escalated at Delhi Public School (DPS), Dwarka, as parents allege that the school has threatened to remove their children from the rolls due to an ongoing dispute over a controversial fee hike. Parents were informed that they must secure clearances from the school's administrative and accounts departments by April 7, or their children risk being struck off the rolls. This warning has led to protests outside the school, with parents labeling the move as abrupt and unjust. Initially, students were allowed to attend classes without any indication of punitive action, but later, emails were sent stating that their names had been removed from the rolls. Parents have cited a court order that prohibits discrimination against students over pending fees, yet they claim the school administration has not provided satisfactory explanations. The school's notice refers to a previous show-cause notice dated March 25, indicating that responses regarding unpaid fees were deemed unsatisfactory. Parents estimate that around 30 students are affected, prompting them to approach the Directorate of Education (DoE) for urgent intervention. They assert that the school's actions violate the Delhi High Court's orders, which mandate that students should not face segregation due to non-payment of increased fees. Parents maintain that they have complied with the court's previous directions regarding fee payments.
