Haryana Cabinet on Thursday gave nod for framing the Haryana Private Coaching Institutes (Registration and Regulation) rules- 2026, aimed at providing a structured regulatory framework for the registration and functioning of private coaching institutes in the state.
The cabinet approved an amendment in the policy for setting up nursing homes in licensed residential colonies. In view of recent incidents, an effective policy has been formulated for coaching centres. In addition, provisions have been made to ensure drinking water, fire safety, adequate seating arrangements and other necessary safety standards for students.
The rules are being framed under the Haryana Registration and Regulation of Private Coaching Institutes Act, 2024, which provides for registration and regulation of private coaching institutes offering coaching for higher studies, jobs, professional courses and competitive examinations. The Act was in consonance with the January 2024 guidelines issued by the Union government, an official spokesperson said. A comprehensive supplement to the existing Haryana Startup Policy 2022, reserving 10% of its annual procurement for eligible Haryana startups, offering incentives for women led startups and introducing matching grants to attract private investment was also approved in the cabinet meeting. Explaining the supplement, an official spokesperson said that to create more opportunities for startups in government procurement, the state government will reserve 10% of its annual departmental procurement for eligible Haryana-based startups. To promote private investment in startups, the government will provide co-investment or matching grants of up to ₹ 25 lakh for every ₹ 25 lakh raised from a private or angel investor under the seed fund matching provision. The cabinet also approved a proposal to repeal the Haryana State Council for Physiotherapy (HSCP) Act, 2020 in view of the National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions (NCAHP) Act, 2021.
