Some schools collected more than tuition fees: HC
Telangana High Court on Wednesday directed the State government to furnish details of the action initiated by it against schools that collected more than the tuition fee during the COVID-19 pandemic period. A bench of Chief Justice Hima Kohli and Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy wanted to know against how many schools the government had cracked the whip for violating the government’s order not to collect more than the prescribed tuition fee. During the lockdown imposed in 2020 following the outbreak of coronavirus, Telangana government issued instructions to schools not to collect the total ‘school fee’ from students. The school managements were instructed to collect only tuition fee. However, some schools allegedly urged the parents to pay more than the tuition fee citing “online classes”.More Related News
