FEE CAN BE DEFERRED, NOT WAIVED: SCHOOLS While schools have welcomed the Delhi government’s decision, they are opposed to demands from parents who want annual and development fee for the
first quarter to be waived completely. RC Jain, President of Delhi Sate Public School Management Association said that he welcomes “the government’s decision because this has dispelled
rumours that parents have to pay fee at all.” On the issue of development and annual fee waivers, he said that schools will take month-wise fee and pay month-wise salaries of teachers at the
moment and focus on other fee heads later. ‘We will decide about development fee, annual charge, transport fee later, this directive is only applicable for the lockdown period.”
