Rule 134A historically required recognised private schools in Haryana to reserve 10% of seats for meritorious students from Economically Weaker Sections and Below Poverty Line categories and charge them the same fee as government schools. The Punjab and Haryana High Court upheld the rule's validity in 2015. In 2022, the Court separately upheld the state's decision to delete the rule.
