Article 226 | Madras HC Directs CBSE to Conduct Exams at Neutral Venue for Harassed Student Denied School Access

The Madras High Court invoked its writ jurisdiction under Article 226 to ensure a student’s right to education, directing the CBSE to conduct examinations at a neutral venue after the school allegedly harassed the student, preventing attendance. The ruling reinforces that schools cannot bar students from exams due to internal disputes or relocation, safeguarding examination rights under the Right to Education.
