INSO leader Sukhdev Kundu said the proposal for hiking the fee of prospectus for various departments is an issue of concern especially for aspirants hailing from rural and backward parts of the country. "A hike of nearly Rs 200 for the prospectus of the Common Entrance Test (CET) is not acceptable. Education should not be made out of reach for bright students," he said. Kundu added that this would be a major blow for the students who have limited resources to carry on higher studies.
If the proposed price hike for the forms is approved in the Syndicate meeting to be held on January 25, students will have to shell out on average Rs 300 more for various forms . Students would have to pay Rs 1,700 for the O-CET prospectus and Rs 1,800 for other forms as compared to last year's Rs 1,500.
