In a statement issued here, today chairman of the Society, Mir Ghulam Rasool Butwani, its other senior office bearers, D N Sadhu and Pran Nath Raina said that there should be proper check on the tuition fee and other charges demanded by private schools in J&K who have commercialised the education.

The Society said that in the ensuing meeting convened by the Administrative Secretary Education in next week the views of representatives of the parents associations as well as members of civil society be also taken into account so that a workable fee structure can be formulated keeping in view the interests of private schools as well as parents so that they are not being fleeced on the name of tuition fee.
