citiesUpdated: Jan 24, 2020 22:56 ISTNew Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday allowed 300 schools run by the Action Committee Unaided Recognised Private Schools society to run their operations at the senior secondary level without having to pay any additional charges to the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), whether by way of Floor Area Ratio (FAR) charges or otherwise. Justice C Hari Shankar directed the DDA to modify lease deeds, executed with the society, to the said effect. It, however, clarified that the right of the societies to run their institutions at the senior secondary level would not be conditional or dependent, upon such modifications. The court said the DDA stand was “completely unreasonable” and amounted to “an attempt to take away with the left hand that which is given with the right”. However, we support education and if this helps in providing affordable education, the DDA may consider accepting,” said a DDA official.
