The Srijan School in Model Town was reportedly collecting the fee through a mobile application while declining to receive the payment in cash or through any other mode of payment.

According to the parents, the fee hike was unilaterally imposed by the school.

Similarly, there were issues of harassment as well. It was also reported that the school authority was harassing and humiliating them purposefully to deposit the increased fee immediately.
