Salary hike 7th pay commission
The Delhi High Court has directed the AAP government not to give effect to its decision barring several private unaided schools in the national capital from hiking fees with retrospective effect to implement the 7th Central Pay Commission’s (CPC) recommendations. Justice Sunil Gaur said the interim increase in fees permitted last year by the Delhi government, to implement the 7th CPC, was “unreasonably withdrawn with retrospective effect” by the April 13, 2018 order of its Directorate of Education (DoE). The court said its interim order will be in place till the next date of hearing on July 31 of the plea moved by a private unaided schools association alleging that the Delhi government was delaying the implementation of the 7th CPC.
