A committee appointed by the state government under the Maharashtra Capitation Fee Act, has proved charges of taking excess fees from students for WiFi service, against Jaihind College. The college, which was earlier cleared of the charge by the University of Mumbai, has been shocked by the new finding, and has said the payment for the service was not mandatory for all students.

Following the report by the committee (that has members from the university) which states that the college charged capitation fee amounting to lakhs in total, the Maharashtra Navnirman Vidyarthi Sena (MNVS) has written to the Mumbai University demanding the Best College award given to it (the college), as well as its status of autonomy, be revoked.
