Thiruvananthapuram, Sept 13 (UNI) Putting an end to uncertainty over the fee structure for government quota seats in Self-finance Professional colleges, the Kerala government and Self-financing Medical College Management Association have reached an agreement for the current academic year in this regard.
At the end of a marathon talks with Education Minister M A Baby, which started in the morning, the Management Association today agreed to collect government fees in 50 per cent seats and in the remaining 50 per cent in management quota the fees would be fixed by the Justice K T Thomas Commission.
Though the government had insisted for a five-year agreement, the Association did not concede the demand.
As per the agreement, which would be later signed, Rs 12,225 would be the fees in government seats, while it would be Rs 1,13,000 in the Management quota for MBBS course.
The fees in the subsequent years would be decided by the Fees Regulatory Commission.
To overcome the Supreme Court order on cross subsidy, the surplus fee would be given as scholarships to the students.
