Education Policy Compliance | Merger of Schools Beyond 2 km Violates State Directive: Madhya Pradesh HC
The Madhya Pradesh High Court quashed an order merging a government primary school located 5 km from a Saandipani School, holding that state policy strictly limits mergers to schools within 2 km. This reinforces that administrative actions must strictly adhere to policy thresholds, protecting rural schools from arbitrary consolidation and safeguarding access to education for marginalized communities.
