Delhi to Inspect All Coaching Centres and Seal Repeat Safety Violators

The government accepted Justice Guaba Committee recommendations and will place a draft law in the public domain within three months for implementation.

Overview

  • The Delhi government has ordered inspections of all 924 private coaching centres and has named the Municipal Corporation of Delhi as the nodal inspecting agency.
  • Centres previously issued notices that remain non-compliant will be sealed and other offending institutes will receive notices with a one-month window to fix defects.
  • A committee under the Director of Higher Education has been formed to turn the Guaba Committee’s recommendations into operational rules and enforcement procedures.
  • The proposed regulatory framework targets structural safety, teacher qualifications, operational norms and restrictions on advertising to curb unsafe or unpermitted operations.
  • Officials say the combined inspection-and-legislation approach could force closures of centres in prohibited locations and prompt audits that reshape how private tutoring operates in the city.
