The decision has been considering the fact that there are several parents who have faced the loss of income owing to the coronavirus pandemic. Also, parents who are not paying the fee can deposit the same with deductions.
MESTA has also decided no fees will be charged for the students who have lost their parents due to Covid-19 that is they will be getting free education from class 1 to class 12.
MESTA believes that this decision will benefit 60 percent of the children of the schools affiliated with it.
The association has appealed to the parents with no income loss due to the pandemic to pay the full fees so that the needy can get benefit from this decision. Funds are necessary to run the school and hence is it necessary to pay the fees. If teachers will get the salary, then the online classes will be held.
People have been facing financial crises for the last one and half years that is since the outbreak of the pandemic. Parents from several parts of the country have been complaining of financial difficulties due to loss of income. This step taken by MESTA will provide relief to several parents facing financial crunch.
