...The Law operating in this field The specific question that: “How far is it permissible under the Constitution for the State to control and regulate admission and fee in private unaided educational institutions?” has bothered the Supreme Court on a plethora of occasions. The apex court in its wisdom has answered the above-mentioned question although meticulously but has left it open-ended. The primary and the contemporaneous issue that whether the constitution of India guarantees a fundamental right to education to its citizens was answered in affirmative by the Supreme Court in the case of Unnikrishnan, J.P. v. State of Andhra Pradesh. [1] An eleven judge bench of the Supreme Court for the first time, inter alia addressed the issue of fee structure in detail in the case of T.M.A. Pai Foundation & Ors. Vs. State of Karnataka & Ors. [2] (hereinafter referred to as the Pai Foundation case). A bench of eleven judges was constituted so that it would not be bound by any of their earlier decisions. The fact that merits consideration is that the apex court was divided in its opinion in this case, which gave rise to subsequent questions, arising from the different interpretations by the different High courts. The apex court was vigilant enough to take into cognizance the ambiguities which had arisen from the aforesaid judgment, hence it constituted a constitution bench comprising of five judges to clarify the doubts which had arisen in the Pai foundation case. The Pai foundation case...

...GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF EDUCATION THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT OF INDIA IN EDUCATION By J. P. NAIK 1.One of the major educational controversies today refers to the role of the Government of India in education. Prima facie education is a State subject. Entry 11 of the List II of the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution lays down that “education including universities, subject to the provisions of Entries 63, 64, 65 and 66 of List I and Entry 25 of List III” should be a State subject. But there are some other provisions in the Constitution itself which contradict the almost absolute delegation of authority suggested by this entry in the State list; and what is even more significant, the Central Government has since shown an unprecedented activity and interest in the field of education ever since the attainment of independence. In 1947, it appointed a University Commission and has since been engaged in evolving common policies in Higher education such as the introduction of the three-year degree course. This was followed by a Secondary Education Commission which tried to introduce a number of uniform trends in a field where the Centre has had hardly any constitutional authority. No Commission was appointed in the field of Primary education. But the scheme of Basic education was declared to have gone beyond the stage of experimentation and was also adopted as the national pattern at the Elementary stage. The interest of the Central Government in Technical education and...
