A Division Bench of Acting Chief Manmohan and Justice Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora noted that in the government, in its affidavit dated May 2, had said that textbooks will be distributed to students by May 10, before the start of summer vacations.
However, a report dated May 15 said that the task would be completed by July.
The Bench expressed strong displeasure over the delay and said that it was not proper for the government to give a deadline and then not comply with it.
“It is not done, we will take you to task… This is not proper that you give us a deadline and not comply with it,” the Court remarked.
