Schools across the country have been directed to refund a portion of their fees to students in line with the salary increments granted to teachers. The decision follows a government order mandating that any additional compensation received by educators must be offset by corresponding reductions in student charges. Parents and education watchdogs have welcomed the move as a step toward financial relief amid rising costs, though concerns remain about implementation and transparency. The ruling applies to all recognized institutions, ensuring uniformity in fee adjustments across the board.
