Addressing presspersons here on Wednesday, new State president of the Mahasabha Na. Subramanyaraju said that it was natural that workers were angry against the Union government as it had unilaterally taken a decision on workers' PF.

As it had taken an irresponsible decision without responding to workers' grievances, it led to workers anger, subsequent violence and loss to public property in Bengaluru, he said.

Both the Union and State governments should first address workers' grievances and take steps to release the arrested workers. Compensation should be paid to the police personnel injured in the violence, he said.

Mr. Subramanyaraju said that the Mahasabha also condemned the Union government's action of allowing an inquiry team from Pakistan to visit the sensitive airbase at Pathankot, in connection with the terrorist attack there.

‘Reduce school fees by 75% as infrastructure, resources unutilized due to online classes’

Mangaluru, Jul 24: Parents in Dakshina Kannada are urging the educational institutions to reduce fees at least by 75% as most of the infrastructure and resources are not being utilized due to online classes.

“School campuses are now closed. Why we have to pay such a heavy fee when our children are not availing the facilities offered on campus?” asks a Sapna (name changed), a parent, whose two daughters study at a prestigious private school in Mangaluru.

Even though some schools considered as small players have reduced fees, most of the “prestigious” institutions in the Mangaluru have so far refused to give any discount.

“Apart from paying school fees, now we have to invest in gadgets, internet connections and accessories required for online classes. School administration can use their infrastructure and facilities for other purposes as students are not utilizing them. Hence, they must give us maximum discount during this pandemic,” said another parent.

On the other hand, many parents are facing a dire financial situation due to covid-19 lockdown – while some have suffered losses in their business some have lost their jobs.

Many parents have even approached the education department to ensure that they get a discount in fees from educational institutions, said Dakshina Kannada DDPI Malleswamy.

“We cannot do anything since a government circular has asked educational institutions not to hike fees, which they have not done, and reduce fees if possible, which will never happen. The department is acting against only those schools that forcefully collect fees,” the DDPI said.
