Scottish High International School dislikes freedom of speech?

Disclaimer: I am not a parent of any kid that studies in this school. In fact, I am not even a parent. I am just an amused blogger from Gurgaon.

Scottish High International School has filed a 20 lakh rupee defamation suit against parents of some students of the school.

The parents were protesting fee hike by the school on a Google Group online.

The lawsuit was filed after Delhi High Court restrained the parents from operating the said Google Group.

The school is also opposing the name of the said group: “Scottish International School Parents’ Association”.

I guess they believe that the fair usage of the school’s name is also not permissible. What is wrong if the parents want to discuss their grievances online?

One parent named Vinay Prakash said that the forum was being used to protest the “unfair and fraudulent ways of fleecing parents by charging fees under false heads”.

I guess the school probably skips teaching the students their fundamental rights too.
