While stating that it is not just about Rs 700, but about the future of hundreds and thousands of students who dream to pursue higher education in the state’s lone central university, RGURSF said such extravagant fee is detrimental to the interest of poor students who wish to apply for admission to RGU and the state at large.
Education must not be confined to the privileged few. Application fees must be reasonable enough to enable everyone to apply regardless of their financial status, RGURSF said.
The forum has further urged the Vice Chancellor to take a pro-poor decision and decrease the examination fees so that some succour can be provided to the aggrieved students.
Meanwhile, the RGUSU has also appealed to the varsity administration to reduce the exam fee and also extend the last date for form fill up stating that due to poor network connectivity many students are still unable to apply.
