The Madras High Court has issued notice to Commissioner of Police, CBSE and others on an impleading petition filed by an NGO seeking a direction to authorities to take action on alleged illegality committed by a Hyderabad based Educational Institution in Chennai.
According to the plea filed by Change India, which had already filed a PIL to close down 746 unrecognized schools, the Narayana Group of Schools have established almost 14 schools in and around Chennai within a span of one year.
The petitioner submitted that the school had even admitted students while construction was going on in some places.
