ORDER:
The 11 Judges Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court of India in its judgement dated.31.10.2002 in W.P (Civil) No.317/1993 in TMA Pai Foundation and Others Vs State of Karnataka and Others, while dealing with the Private unaided educational institutions has held that,
“…….. A rational fees structure should be adopted by the management, which would not be entitled to charge a capitation fee. Appropriate machinary can be deviced by the State or University to ensure that no capitation fee is charged and that there is no profiteering, though a reasonable surplus for the furtherance of education is permissible …………” (Para 69 of the Judgement)
While answering Question No.5(c), the Supreme Court has held that,
“………. Fees to be charged by unaided institutions can not be regulated but no institution should charge capitation fee.”
2. The Government are conscious to the fact that the law declared by the Supreme Court binds everyone and the Government are bound to follow it. Before taking any firm decision with reference to the implementation of the law laid down by the Supreme Court mentioned in para 1 above, it was thought better to ascertain the views of the managements of the unaided professional colleges. Accordingly, the Government held a meeting with the managements of the unaided professional colleges in the State on 3.2.2003. About 200 managements of the colleges, both minority and non-minority have attended the meeting. Among other things, one of the views expressed by them relates to the prescription of fee to be charged by them from the students. Government also requested them to furnish their views in writing in the prescribed format on this point on or before 6.2.2003. Till 10.2.2003, 90 colleges have sent their views in writing. Out of the above,
(i) Majority of the managements have said that fees may be prescribed between Rs.35,000/- to Rs.40,000/-
(ii) Some managements have suggested prescription of fee as Rs.30,000/-.
(iii) Some managements have suggested a fee of Rs.49,000/-
(iv) Some managements have suggested a fee of Rs.42,000/-
(v) Some managements have suggested prescription of two categories of fees Rs.20,000/- to Rs.35,000/- as free seat and Rs.40,000/- to Rs.48,000/- as payment seat.
3. The Government examined the views expressed by the unaided professional institutions within the ambit of the law declared by the Apex Court and they have decided to issue necessary executive orders for the implementation of the law declared by the 11 Judges Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court of India in T.M.A.Pai Foundation case. They accordingly direct that, the Government need not fix the fee to be charged by the unaided professional institutions. However they advise the managements to consider fixing the fee as Rs.30,000/- per annum and further advise that meritorious students selected through the Single Window System be given some concession say Rs.5000/- in the rate of fee.
4. The Government direct that the orders issued in the G.O. first read above stand modified to the extent ordered in para 3 above in so far as it relates to unaided professional institutions including Polytechnic Colleges and Hotel Management and Catering Technology Institutions.
5. As per Section 3 of the Tamil Nadu Educational Institutions (Prohibition of Collection of Capitation Fee) Act, 1992, (Tamil Nadu Act 57 of 1992), Collection of Capitation fee is prohibited. The Government therefore direct that as per Section 7 and 8 of the Act, action will be pursued against the persons responsible for the violation of the provisions of the Act.

Four corporate houses of Coimbatore join hands to make the city’s parched patches water-rich and green.
It’s not just known as a textile or foundry city anymore. Coimbatore has another claim to fame now — it shows the way in harnessing corporate and people power for water resource reclamation and management of waste. Four years ago, this city, which was known for its salubrious climate and copious supply of water, went absolutely dry. “Parched patches of earth, people queuing for water for miles on end, skies bereft of rain-bearing clouds, depleting ground water sources, anger and despair on every face — that was Coimbatore then,” recalls Vanita Mohan, a lady from a leading corporate house and one of the key proponents of change.Someone had to make a beginning for a different tomorrow. Four leading corporate houses in Coimbatore — Lakshmi Machine Works (LMW), Elgi, Bannariamman and Pricol — pooled their resources to introduce their expertise in rural watershed management to the city. Entrepreneur-driven Coimbatore found its answer in a corporate initiative, Siruthuli, which translated from Tamil, means a small drop.
