Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar arrived at the spot and assured to hold another round of talks with parents and school management for resolving the issues. Suresh Kumar revealed, “We had given time for school managements and parents to come to a conclusion over the fee row, but when they failed to find a solution we, the government intervened and taken a decision after discussing with all stakeholders.”
He further added, “The school managements are saying the fee cut has become 50% to 60% in reality. If that is the case, we are open for discussion and let the private school managements submit their suggestion.”
