School Land Under Right to Education Act Cannot Be Diverted for Non-Educational Use | Public Trust Doctrine Enforced: Telangana HC
The Telangana High Court has ordered an immediate halt to the construction of a Mahila Bhavan on Zilla Parishad High School premises, ruling that land dedicated for education cannot be repurposed under any administrative scheme. This reinforces the Public Trust Doctrine and the state’s non-negotiable duty under the Right to Education Act to preserve educational infrastructure for children’s access and development.
