The new principal of Chennai’s Loyola College G. Joseph Antony Samy will take over on Saturday. Speaking to the media, he said that he looked forward to taking the institution to new heights. When asked about allegations of taking capitation fee, Rev. Fr. Samy said that the college does not take such a fee and warned parents to beware of agents who claim otherwise.

‘The institute has a zero-tolerance policy for people who indulge in money making activities involving cheating parents by promising seats… The college does not accept capitation fee and hence, parents should not trust those posing as agents of the institute.

‘We have been told that some insiders in the institution have been associated with laundering of seats. The public should complain to us straightaway and we will initiate necessary action. We will leave no stone unturned in rooting out this malaise… The admission policy at Loyola College was free from any malpractice, and that there was no discrepancy in the 50 per cent seats allotted in government quota’, he said.
