In March 2026, a Delhi HC Division Bench dismissed an LPA arising from a denied EWS/DG admission, holding that Article 21A and the RTE Act 2009 do not confer a constitutional right to admission in a particular school of choice once the academic year has ended and an alternative seat has been allotted.
Madras HC (Madurai) holds a single judge cannot nullify a division bench; 'Angapradakshinam' is barred pending the Supreme Court's cognate Karnataka ruling.
