DENYING charges over allocation of funds for the education department, School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi dismissed the allegations that internet bills for district education offices have not been paid leading to suspension of connections. "Internet bills are not pending in any district. There are no salaries pending to teachers," he said in a statement on Sunday.

Poyyamozhi also accused the centre of withholding its share of ₹2,151 crore under Samagra Shiksha scheme, forcing the state to bear the entire cost of educational initiatives.
