Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has given all coaching centres a one-month deadline to comply with mandatory safety norms, warning that non-compliant institutes will not be allowed to operate. The government will introduce a strict regulatory law, while students can report safety lapses. The move follows recent fatal fire incidents, including the Lucknow coaching centre tragedy.
New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Saturday warned that coaching centres which fail to comply with mandatory safety norms will no longer be permitted to operate in Delhi.
In a video message, Gupta said the Delhi government will soon introduce a robust regulatory law to ensure stricter oversight, greater accountability, and enhanced student safety.
"One month. There is a time of one month, get all the safety regulations. All the coaching institutes running in Delhi, be it 900 or 1000, the number doesn't matter, what matters is the lives of the children studying there, their safety and security," she said.
Students are encouraged to report any negligence or lack of safety measures in their coaching centres via email, message, or phone, the chief minister added.
