Sadaf Aman ByExpress News ServiceHYDERABAD: Unhappy that the government has put the school fee regulation issue on the back burner, parents allege that it has also ignored the directives passed by the Telangana High Court on the issue of fee collection, amounting to contempt of court. They have demanded urgent corrective action from the government and said that failure to do so might force the Hyderabad School Parents Association (HSPA) to initiate proceedings for contempt of court against the government. In the absence of any further direction from the court, parents demanded an update on the implementation of these directives. Another parent rued that though the court orders were issued before the 2018-19 academic year began, it has not been implemented even a year later. “The schools have issued fee challans for term 2 also, and yet, we have not seen any action from the government,” said Pavan Reddy, member of the association..
