IIM's/IIT's fees shouldn't be hikeed so much coz other institutions also increased their fees while they are not providing the good placements. Due to these reason, middle class families can't afford this.

A fee hike is justified in the premier institutes but what is not right is the timing. It must be announced well in advance (like a year) and not in Mar and implemented in June. Another point to be thought over is the quantum of increase, which seems to be phenomenal. Maybe increasing the fees on a regular basis would be a better idea rather than such jumps in fees, which throws the funding plans of students of out gear. The only silver lining in this is that banks are ready to offer loans. That too not without guarantor, so financially backward students need to seek guarantees from relatives and friends. Maybe all these difficulties are justified, as the students land in good jobs. Let us wait for the committee's report
