| Parents Association demands to stop harassment of parents, students | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 2: Parents Association today criticized the administration of private schools for harassing the parents as well as students.
According to press release, hundreds of parents attended a special meeting called by the Association. Fee hike by some schools without obtaining the approval from the FFC was again discussed and majority of the parents expressed their resentment on the dilly dally approach adopted by the district administration of Jammu in this regard.
Parents expressed that the FFC is adopting double standards in fixing the Fee structure of many schools for their own financial benefits.
President of the association Mr. Amit Kapoor criticized the Govt. authorities for giving ample time to the private school managements to approach the Supreme Court of India to get the J&K High Court Order dated 18.03.2019 stayed, vide which the High Court had directed the private schools to refund the excess Fee along with interest @ 9% pa.
He further questioned the mode of ascertaining the Fee structure for different schools and demanded that the yardsticks adopted for the said purpose should be made public so that the parents can also keep an eye on the terms & conditions on which Fee structure was approved and what facilities are being provided to the students in their holistic growth.
The association made a strong appeal to all the school managements of the private schools of the state, that after getting approval from the FFC, they should not pressurize the parents to pay whole of the precious months Fee in one go. Mr. Amit kapoor and majority of the parents demanded that from the date of approval sought from the FFC, schools may collect Fee from that month only and regarding previous months fees, the adjustments shall be made after the final verdict of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in the matter of refund of Fees.
The parents also endorsed the decision on the ground that the apex Court has only stayed the operation of the J&K High Court order dated 18.03.2019 and final decision in the form of an order on the refund of excess Fees is yet to come.
The association in strongest possible words warned those private schools which are trying to pressurize the association in one way or the other. He said that the cause of the association is one i-e to get some relief for the common people of the society from the high earning schools, so that they can also provide quality education to their deserving children. |
