Panchkula, April 9
For the second consecutive day, parents of students studying in Bhavan Vidyalaya, Sector 15, staged a protest over the "140 per cent fee hike" here today.
Congress workers, including former Deputy Chief Minister Chander Mohan, came out to express solidarity with the protesters.
Kavita, a parent, said they could not afford to pay the hiked fee in the Covid times. "It is nothing but harassment," she said.
Priyanka, one of the protesters, asked: "Have they upgraded any facility given to students if they talk about fee hike? Schools should release their balance sheet in the public domain."
Chander Mohan said most private schools in the district had arbitrarily increased the fee structure for the 2021-22 academic year. — TNS
