Memo.No.SPLI APSERMC/2021 Dated:24.05.2021
Sub:- APSERMC- Certain instructions to all the District Educational Officers in the State regarding the collection of fees by the institutions – Issued – Reg.
Read:- Orders of the Hon’ble Supreme Court and the Hon’ble High Court.
All the District Educational Officers in the State are hereby directed, to observe whether the institutions are disallowing the students to attend the online classes on the ground fees payable have become due. If it is true, it is in violation of the orders of the Hon’ble Supreme court and the Hon’ble High Court. The Supreme Court further held that the institutions shall also keep in mind the fact that the expenses will be less in the context of providing only online classes. So the institutions have to collect less fees than the prescribed fees.
Further, the Apex Court directed the institutions not to collect any other fees for the facilities which are not provided by them. The institutions therefore shall not disallow the students to attend online classes citing fee dues or any other ground.
The District Educational Officers in the State are directed to take immediate action against managements of the institutions which disallow the students to the online classes.
