Yes, you can claim refund of fees provided you can substantiate that the university is fake with sufficient evidences and further the same claim can be made within the provisions of Limitations Act. You can serve them a legal notice for the same.

yes if a student wants to leave a university or course midway and is seeking refund of fees paid in advance for the full course, he/she is legally eligible to get the same. You can ask the university for the same and if they do not agree, you can file a consumer complaint against the university.

As explained you paid three quarter fees to sikkim manipal university and found the course unsatisfactory. Are you still a student of the university or you left the course in between. You can ask for refund and if they fail to give back the money, you may file complaint with the consumer forum. It would be advisable to have a detailed discussion of your case to give a legal opinion. Thanks.

You are admitting negligance on your part. Have you made any representation to university? if yes then you may ask for fees. But if you haven't and dropped the collage without endorsing your grivances to the university then I see no hope for you. But, if you did something i this regard then you may write with full description again.
