Blue Bells, Gurgaon, brings the fee hike issue back in news

The issue of fee hikes has resurfaced in Gurgaon, thanks to a 15 per cent increase by Blue Bells School. Agitated parents today held a protest outside the school gate with banners and angry slogans.

“The school does not provide even basic facilities. Even its fans don’t work half the time. On what basis has it hiked its fees?” said Mahesh Yadav, a parent.

Parents even said the school has no sports facilities.

Most parents who were part of the protest were from middle-class families and felt the fee hike was unjustified and put undue financial pressure on them.

“Do we get a 15 percent increase in our annual appraisals? Then how can the school even think of such an atrocious increase in fees?” asked Bakshish Singh, an angry parent.

The school refused to react to the protest and, despite several attempts, remained unavailable for comment.
