https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=304909 Strict locus standi is relaxed in public interest litigation where binding admission and fee-collection rules affecting a broad class of students are under challenge, so maintainability may be sustained despite an objection from a petitioner who is an advocate. In unaided professional education, institutions may fix fees within the regulatory framework, but they cannot demand advance fee for more than one year or require every student to furnish a blanket bank guarantee for the entire remaining course. Security for possible midstream loss may be sought only in a limited, case-specific manner, ordinarily by bond and exceptionally by bank guarantee. Any excess advance fee already collected must be safeguarded for students. en-us Mon, 31 May 2021 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 04 Nov 2022 21:32:05 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=304909 Strict locus standi is relaxed in public interest litigation where binding admission and fee-collection rules affecting a broad class of students are under challenge, so maintainability may be sustained despite an objection from a petitioner who is an advocate.
