Shivamogga: Members of NSUI staged a protest in front of Sahyadri college against the sudden and unexpected hike in the college fees.
An unexpected hike of Rs three thousand rupee is burdensome and not acceptable, said NSUI wing. There has been no hike of fees in Kuvempu University colleges but only in Sahyadri college, they added.
The administration justified the hike saying that they have to hire part-time lecturers to maintain the quality of education as the student strength is increasing day by day. We have to expand infrastructural facilities, so we decided to marginally increase fee to maintain the quality of education and maintenance.
NSUI state vice president Chetan, Dist. Prsi. Balaji, Dist Sec Pramod, Chef. Sec. Arjun and Miss Sauwgandhika along with others were seen at the protest.
