"Inhuman" as it may be, internship is meant to offer a trainee an opportunity to be in a "simulated" environment pertaining to his training. The company has no responsibility to offer any pay to the trainee. If the trainee as a result of the internship gets to grow, should the company then claim some benefit from them for giving them the internship?

In the minimum - at least transport should be provided (may be even lunch) - if not a pay.
Otherwise this would mean that only 'rich' students/interns get to have opportunities; while the 'poor' ones miss out on chances ?
During our days; and upto now; the government provided us with 4k per month for transport/food during internship through HELB for some courses (not all).
