A recent inspection at a private school in Rohini, Delhi, revealed significant safety norm violations. The school was found operating without a valid fire safety certificate and lacked necessary licenses for its swimming pool. Additionally, 18 basement rooms were being utilized for various classes, contravening municipal building codes and Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) guidelines. The Delhi government is responding to these findings by planning inspections of all private schools in the city. Preliminary investigations suggest the school may be functioning as a profit-making entity, prompting the government to initiate a probe into allegations of financial misconduct, including possible money laundering. The government has indicated that actions could include the cancellation of the school's land lease and a takeover by the government if further irregularities are discovered. Complaints have also surfaced regarding the school's treatment of parents, including allegations of harassment and demands for donations for student admissions.
