The University of Delhi has decided to hike the Development fee charged from students from next year. The fees has been revised to Rs 900 from Rs 600 charged earlier.

As per an official notification from the Delhi University, the varsity has decided to increase the annual university development fee charged from students due to reduction in capital grants by the University Grants Commission (UGC).
