The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Tuesday partially sealed the Delhi Tamil Education Society Senior Secondary School located on Pusa Road in Central Delhi due to unpaid property tax, according to various news reports.
Officials said the principal’s office and several other rooms were sealed, but classrooms were left untouched so that students' classes would not be affected.
The sealing was done by the Assessment and Collection Department under Section 156A of the Delhi Municipal Corporation (DMC) Act, 1957. According to MCD, the school was sent several official notices under different sections of the DMC Act (153, 123D, 156, and 446), but the school did not respond to any of them.
MCD warned that further action may be taken if the pending dues are not cleared.
