T.M.A. Pai Foundation & Ors vs State Of Karnataka & Ors (With Other ... on 31 October, 2002
23. As far as the plea of the students that the fees for the academic year
2003-04 should also be on par with the fees prescribed by the Committee and
the excess fees collected during the academic year 2003-04 should be adjusted
against the future fees payable by the students is concerned, we find from the
written submission made on behalf of the management of self-financing dental
colleges that,
"it is humbly submitted there is no substance having regard to the fact that
the I and II year B.D.S. Course students who have been admitted during
2003-04 & 2004-05 i.e., after T.M.A.Pai's case are governed by the fee
structure as proposed by the management subject to the writ petitions pending
before this Hon'ble Court. The III & IV year students were admitted during
the academic year 2000-02 whose fee structure had already been fixed in
consonance with the fee fixed by the then Committee which is in terms of
Unnikrishnan's scheme"
