I joined a college and submitted all my original certificates. I paid the first semester fees but couldn’t pay further. Now, the college is refusing to return my certificates unless I pay the entire course fees. What can I do?

Under Indian law, a college cannot withhold your original certificates as a means of collecting unpaid fees. You can approach the college authorities and request the return of your certificates, citing relevant legal provisions. If they refuse, you can file a complaint with the relevant regulatory body, such as the university or the state education department.
