P Balram* was particular about the school his daughter should go to. And he was willing to go to any extent to get admission there. So, before the school could ask for a donation, he offered to set up a computer lab for 7 lakh. It was an offer the Kilpauk school couldn't refuse. Another parent got an admission for his child in a school in Mylapore by promising a basketball court that cost Rs 17 lakh.

hi
its just charity to the school....not bribe....may be called SERVICE CHARGES.....the school provides education for profit making

institution.....nobody wants run as loss making company....many govt companies are loss making...still they get support

from govt,....same way the private school gets funding like these donations...no free lunch in private schools...

Yup, that's why it is called donation, not a bribe. Only it so happens that the donation is mandatory.

Who should take the blame or Pride for this ?? Relevant school or the parent who is keen to pay Rs. 17 Lakhs for KG Admission?
