High court directs Kamineni Institute of Medical Sciences to refund excess fee
Hyderabad: The division bench of the Telangana High Court issued contempt notices on Thursday to the management of Kamineni Institute of Medical Sciences at Narketpally for not initiating the refund of the excess tuition fee collected from the PG medical students of the batch 2016-19.
The bench comprising Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan and Justice N. Tukaramji was hearing a contempt case where some of the doctors, who had completed PG courses in the college, claimed that an excess amount of tuition fee was collected from the PG medical students of the academic session 2016-19.
The doctors pointed out that it was a deliberate violation of the High Court's common order in January 2022. Without consulting the regulatory fees committee, the court unjustly increased the PG medical tuition fees for 2016–19 by excluding GOs 41 and 43 from the common order. The court also ordered all private colleges to return the original certificates belonging to the students as the certificates of the medicos had been collected by the authorities on the grounds that the students had not paid the fees in accordance with the Regulations, reports Deccan Chronicle.
