Thank you! once again for being with me in this cause, wish to share about what has been unfolded and about the recent developments. 

The petition to Stop Fee Hike is covered by The Print and Dainik Jagran. 

Also, I have submitted a letter to Ministry of Human Resource and Development, and the matter is on their desk. I also wrote to Delhi government stating the issue of fee hike and today they have responded as

"No school can charge three months' tuition fee (at a time), the fee has to be collected monthly. Schools are mandated to pay salaries to their staff including the contractual ones. If they are short of funds, they can reach out to their parent organisation for funds".

"No student's access to online classes should be restricted, irrespective of fee payment,"

Check here the tweet of Mr. Manish Sisodia stating the above. 

Haryana govt. has also taken up the issue and have issued a letter yesterday stating that schools cannot ask parents to pay 3 months fee in advance and can ask only for one month fee. 

The chief education officer, Jammu has also directed all schools there not to pressurize the parents to deposit the school fee till 30th April 2020, till further directions from the administration. 

Thanks and keep sharing the petition until we achieve no fee hike across all states and schools to charge only tuition fee. 

Your support and suggestions are highly needed here 

Thank you!
