Haryana education minister Kanwar Pal on Friday said that a law for monitoring the continuous fee hike by private schools will be enacted by the state government. This, he said, will ensure that schools do not overcharge.
The minister said fee hike of more than 8-10% in a year cannot be justified in any way. Private schools will not be allowed to charge arbitrarily, he said. Sanskriti Model Schools have been set up on the lines of private schools in Haryana wherein children are being given quality education, he added.
