Delhi to Introduce Bill Regulating Private School Fees
The Delhi government is creating a new rule to stop private schools from raising their fees too much.
If a school raises fees unfairly, they'll get a fine.
The first time they do it, the fine will be between one and five lakh rupees.
If they keep doing it, the fines get even bigger, and they could even lose their right to change fees in the future.
The goal is to make sure school fees are fair.

The bill aims to penalize schools with arbitrary fee increases.
First-time offenders face fines between Rs 1 lakh and Rs 5 lakh.
Repeat violations result in penalties of Rs 2 lakh to Rs 10 lakh.
Further delays in refunds may result in doubled fines.
