Receipt of Grant-in-Aid is governed by rules and regulations. Those accepting grants bind themselves to the terms and conditions of the grant as prescribed by the Education Act and Rules. Fees other than those actually prescribed are illegal.
If managements feel these (prescribed fees) are inadequate, then they are free to go private always providing they adhere to the act. Meaning they cannot charge extortionate fees. Protests from South Goa validate my point. Educational excellence is not a just matter of having a posh building and equipment. No doubt it is a contributing factor. There are lots of factors that go into it which devolve round human abilities - on the part of management, faculty and students. Check out how Pierre and Marie Curie discovered Polonium and Radium. In a drafty shed or out doors slogging over a giant vat. (No Jet propulsion laboratory for them!) And after all, Einstien came up with his theory of Relativity in a patent office!
