increase of fees
In response to the recommendations made by National Knowledge Commission (NKC) for increasing fees in universities to meet at least 20 per cent of their total expenditure, the union HRD Ministry ruled out any possibility of increase of fees in universities.The NKC had finalized, earlier this year and recommended a more rational fee structure for resource generation. "As a norm, fees should meet at least 20 per cent of the total expenditure in universities.
