No fee hike by private schools: Manish Sisodia

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia announced on Friday said no private school will be allowed to increase fees during the coronavirus lockdown and only the tuition fee can be charged till the time schools reopen.

"We have got several complaints about schools hiking fees and also levying charges like transport fee, which is not even being utilised during the lockdown. No private school will be allowed to hike fees without seeking permission from the government. Schools also cannot charge beyond the tuition fee," Sisodia said at a press conference on Friday.
