Times Of India — jamnalal bajaj institute: blackmailing nris

Address:	Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400020
Website:	jbims.edu

I wish to bring to your notice about irregularities in admission to mms course, by jamnalal bajaj institute of management studies, in connection with exorbitant fee hike being imposed by the said institute, without declaring prior hand on the website or in the brochure.

Above institute has lured the nri community by displaying on their website since april 2017 until august 10th 2017 that the fee chargeable for nri students shall be rs 6 lakhs/year and invited applications in july 2017 stipulating cutoff date as 5th august 2017. They have put up shortlisted students on aug 11th 2017. Today, after announcing the result and after the cutoff date for receiving the applications (Under the pretext of fee as rs6lakhs/yr), are now demanding 15lakhs/yr, stating "take it or leave it"!!!

I request your good offices to kindly intervene and ensure that jbims follows a policy of ethics and not resort to blackmailing the nri students into submission. I am truly surprised that admission to jbims is turning out to be a money spinning racket.

My ward has secured admission, but due to malpractice by jbims in hiking the fees from rs6lakhs to rs15lakhs per year, without even announcing prior handon their intention to hike the fees on the verge of admission and giving 2 days notice to comply) amounts to sheer blackmail and unethical practices and goes against the disclosure norms and right to information before sending application.

May i expect any of your good offices to intervene on the subject. Thank you.
