SRINAGAR: Apni Party District President Srinagar Noor Mohammad Sheikh on Tuesday urged the private school managements across Kashmir Valley not to charge the fee in full from the students in view of the prevailing pandemic.
In a statement issued here, Sheikh urged the government authorities to act against the erring institutions who defy the government orders that were issued from time to time on the fee fixation in view of the situation that emerged after last year’s political developments and COVID-19 lockdown.
He said that a section of people in Kashmir valley whose children are studying in private schools are not in a position to pay the school fee of their wards because of their distressed economic situation.
“Private school managements are a part of this society and they also must realize the sufferings of the people whose livelihood is badly affected since August last year and COVID-19 outbreak,” Sheikh added.
