SC refuses urgent hearing to TN's plea over education funds

NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to accord urgent hearing to a plea filed by the Tamil Nadu government against the Centre for allegedly withholding over Rs 2,151 crore in central education funds under the Samagra Shiksha Scheme for 2024-2025.

A bench comprising Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Manmohan took note of the fact that the state government filed the petition in May alleging withholding of central funds for 2024 and this year also.

"There is no urgency and it can be taken up after the 'partial working days' (the new name of summer vacation)," the bench said.
