The Principal Director School Education, Shanavas C, IAS has informed that many people with vested interest are charging excessive amount from the students for applying scholarship online form and for verification of their application which is a serious offence.

Therefore the Department of School Education has once again reminded all officials and heads of the institutions to take note of it and warn people from such practices or else disciplinary action will be initiated against those who encourage such practices.

The Department also appreciated some Student’s bodies across the state for being vigilant against such ill practices.
