Fee row: Engineering colleges moot loan scheme

HYDERABAD: A fresh proposal, which puts the onus of paying fees on students from weaker sections, was on Sunday put in front of the experts' committee set up for examining the fee structure in professional colleges in the state. As per the new blueprint, which was drawn up by the managements of state engineering colleges, the government should provide educational loans to students in collaboration with Indian Banks' Association. Students will have to start repaying the loan six years after joining the course, that is, two years after its completion. The student would, however, need to repay the loan with interest.
