Delhi IAS candidate death case
On Monday, in the Supreme Court, Justice Suryakant and Justice Ujjwal Bhuiyan called Delhi's coaching centers as rooms of death. The bench said that we are concerned about the safety of coaching centers. Coaching centers are playing with the lives of children. The court said that it is our opinion that if coaching centers do not meet the safety standards, then they should be allowed to start studies in online mode. At present, we are not doing this. The court has issued notice to the Center, Delhi Government and MCD and sought information related to security.
The bench imposed a fine of Rs 1 lakh on the president and secretary of the Coaching Center Federation for challenging the Delhi High Court order.

Coaching Federation NASNU had challenged this in the Supreme Court.
