Bhat Imran
Srinagar, Apr 12 (KNO): Following the complaints against some private schools of unilateral and illegal hike in annual charges, monthly and transport fee, School Education Department Wednesday summoned those institutions with evidences.
According to the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), Joint Director, Central and North Kashmir in this regard has shot a notice to three private educational institutes.
“A large number of complaints have been received through Parents Associations of Private School Kashmir (PAPSK) from time to time against your unilateral and illegal hike of Annual Charges, Monthly fee and Transport fee without the consent and consultation of parents of students studying in your institution,” it reads.
“You dictate them to purchase books from such and such shop with strict instructions to parents to keep one set of book in school and one at home,” reads the notice.
The joint director said, “This approach indicates the choking school environment is taking parents for a ride with your ‘Tugluk -i-Farmam’ and has sent shock waves to the teaching fraternity and students and Society at large.”
The notice further reads that the illegal command to parents depicts the mind set and aristocratic approach which the society is not going to accept and the unbridled powers used by such institutions under the garb of imparting Education.
“It is a slap on the Society which is seeking right to education as a fundamental right but your materialistic mind set commercialization of Educational institutes as teaching shops has closed chances of youth and younger generation to reap benefits of higher Education,” it reads.
The joint director said that DSEK has received evidence in the shape of undertaking, receipts and documents which serve as a proof for the dictatorial orders which shall be taken back forthwith so that the students and the parents take a sigh of relief.
“You are as such directed to roll back these orders which force to deposit additional and charge of hike which is as high as 50 percent to 100 percent hike as compared previous year,” it reads.
The joint director put on notice to respond to the complaint and attend this DSEK along with fee structure of last three years whereby a 50 percent hike given by your school Management has been reported year wise and explain the reasons of such hike which is more than 50 percent for a particular head.
“You are directed to attend DSEK April-27-2023 at with documentary evidence without fail,” it reads—(KNO)
