इसी ही प्रकार सामान्य वर्ग के छात्रों के शुल्क में भी दोगुनी वृद्धि की गई है। यह अति दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण, जातिवादी व गरीब विरोधी फैसला है। CBSE इसे तुरन्त वापिस ले। बी.एस.पी. की यह माँग है।

"Similarly, the fee of general category students has also been doubled. This is a very unfortunate, casteist and anti-poor decision. CBSE should take it back immediately. This is the demand of BSP," she said in another tweet.
