Schools in Delhi have hiked fees — some by even 35%. Parents say it is an insensitive move by schools to increase fees during such an unprecedented crisis.

Empowered committee formed by govt meets JNU officials, is told university is trying to take other measures too to tackle the financial deficit of over Rs 12 cr.
JNU is more than Kanhaiya or Shehla. But the university, which stood for diversity and democracy, has been unmade, in TV debates, in toxic tweets and casual chatter.
Students who paid Rs 10 per month for a double-occupancy room will now have to pay over Rs 2,000, with the mess security deposit also being more than doubled.
He was the bridge connecting the era of legendary actors like Bachchan and Khanna in the 70s, Govinda and Salman Khan in the 90s, and even later, in films like Malamaal Weekly and Dhamaal.

Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
Sanjiv bhatia..please call protesters from JNU..as they are pioneers in creating law and order situation..you are recommending…how come you bring in modi shah in this imbroglio..thodi to sharam karo..dost…
Fight in right spirit…
They definitely have exorbitant fees…it is unmentionable the way they fleece govt servants who are with municipal bodies…they are apparently non civil servants even though they are taken at par …the facilities offered are not at all up to the mark including interiors and sports. Completely unacceptable!!! We sufferred for 10 years and will never get a roll back
“… increasing the salary of the staff in accordance with the 7th Pay Commission…”
Above is a quote from the article. Has the 7th commission recommended increase in salaries by 50%, so the fee has to be increased by this percentage?
Truth of the matter is, the Modi-Shah government and RSS are going by the Manusmriti which insists that EDUCATION IS AN EXCLUSIVE PRIVILEGE OF THE ELITE. In those times the elites meant “upper castes”, in present times it means, “moneyed class”. So obviously the “honest” civil servants do not fall in this category even if they are among the elites otherwise.
This is the SAME old story repeating that was played out at JNU recently. Despite Narendra Modi’s oratory, the truth is that Modi-Shah government is trying their level best to legitimise that totally inhuman doctrine written by a man called Bhrigu. (Sage Manu wrote only the first 50 odd verses in the Manusmriti); they want to make education so expensive that it will automatically become an exclusive privilege of only a few. Will those moneyed dimwits run a country that is predominantly poor? Only Narendra Modi, who has extreme faith in his oratory, can be so naive to believe so.
This problem at Sanskriti School should be fought by all those forces who faught for JNU. Every such design by Modi-Shah government to sabotage education in any part of the country should be fought tooth and nail.
