LG rejects IP University’s proposal for affiliation fee
Hindustan TimesLieutenant governor VK Saxena has rejected a proposal by Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University to impose affiliation fees on government institutes affiliated to it, officials from the LG secretariat said on Saturday, adding that the decision was made to protect the interest of students since affiliation fee would ultimately be added to the total fee paid by them. LG rejects IP University’s proposal for affiliation fee Officials explained that government colleges or institutions do not pay affiliation fee currently and if the proposal by GGSIPU was approved, it would lead to additional burden being passed on to the students. “The amendment of Clause 5 of Statue 24 of the University, had it been implemented, would have required government colleges and institutions affiliated with GGSIPU to pay affiliation fees from the 2025-26 academic sessions. The LG pointed out that government institutes already bear significant financial responsibilities, including application fees for provisional affiliation and continuation of affiliation, officials said.
