The protest in Ujjain regarding the collection of fees in schools continued and parents want M.P. Government should clarify the situation on issue.

The parents of the students reached St. Paul's School on Saturday morning about the fees being sought by the school and the managers closed due to Covid-19 and lodged a protest against the recovery of fees.

The financial situation of parents as the economy of the country has hit badly is poor from the month of March due to Corona infection.

The school has been closed for the last five months. After the lockdown ended on June 1, school managers started studying online and pressure was imposed on parents to recover fees.

Regarding which, there has been a series of demonstrations outside schools continuously for the last 2 months.

On Saturday morning, the parents of the students surrounded St.Paul School on the fees and demanded not to take the fees till the school is closed.  On Thursday, parents lodged St Thomas School and lodged a protest against the collection of fees. Last month, parents in Indore demanded a ban on the arbitrariness of schools by stopping the convoy of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan.

Despite the assurances given to the parents by Chief the arbitrariness of the school managements has not changed. The case is been in the High Court.
