The Aam Aadmi Party government in New Delhi has asked private schools to expedite the online verification process for reimbursement of the tuition fees of minority students. The order has directed all private schools to update the eDistrict portal with the required details. It further stated that inaction from the school management is ‘adversely affecting the motto of Delhi Government regarding timely payment under the scheme to beneficiary student.’

The state government of Delhi has asked all the DDEs to ensure that the online verification of the applications for the state-funded scheme are completed for the Reimbursement of Tuition Fees to the Minority Students of Classes 1 to 12 for the years 2020 -21 and 2021-22.
