Fee Waiver Not Applicable To ICSE Schools In Odisha, Says Supreme Court

Bhubaneswar: The Supreme Court said that the Odisha government notification directing all private schools to follow MoU arrived at between private schools agreeing on fee waiver due to COVID-19 pandemic in a graded manner, will not be applicable for schools affiliated to Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Board.
