(3) Where the Director is of the opinion that the Managing Committee has failed to deposit the fees in accordance with the provisions of sub-section (2) or the orders issued thereunder, the Director may, by order prohibit the Managing Committee from realising any fee from the students and thereupon, the Director may realise the fees either through the employees of the College or in such other manner as he thinks fit, directly from the students and shall deposit the fees so recovered in the “Salary Payment Account”.
