:loudspeaker: Unfair Fees Alert! :police_car_light:

I am a student at a College in Visakhapatnam, and I want to bring attention to an unfair fee structure that was not disclosed at the time of admission!

:pushpin: Issue:
:small_blue_diamond: From the 2nd semester, the college is charging an extra ₹200 per semester as a stationery fee.
:small_blue_diamond: From the 4th semester, they have added a ₹1,000 activity fee per academic year.
:small_blue_diamond: These fees were never mentioned during admission, causing financial strain on students!

:loudspeaker: Why is this a problem?
:white_check_mark: Hidden fees are unethical and create unnecessary burdens for students and their families.
:white_check_mark: Colleges should clearly state all fees upfront instead of adding extra costs later.
:white_check_mark: We deserve transparency and fair educational practices!

:loudspeaker: Call to Action:
:warning: If you or someone you know has faced a similar issue, speak up!
:speech_balloon: Comment, share, and tag authorities to bring attention to this issue.
:envelope_with_arrow: I have officially filed a complaint with AP Higher Education Regulatory & Monitoring Commission, but we need more voices to be heard!

Education should be about learning, not hidden fees! Let’s stand together for fair and transparent policies in colleges! :police_car_light::loudspeaker:

Dear @Phaneendra_G

Your concern about hidden fees at your college in Visakhapatnam is valid. Since these charges were not disclosed at admission, you have the right to challenge them. You’ve taken the right step by filing a complaint with the AP Higher Education Regulatory & Monitoring Commission. Additionally, you can escalate this by lodging a grievance with the **University Grants Commission (UGC) at e-Samadhaan portal (samadhaan.ugc.ac.in).
