Yes, public universities in the USA typically have total tuition fees for master's programs in the ₹20 to ₹30 lakh range.

Annual tuition usually falls between $20,000 and $45,000 (about ₹15 to ₹34 lakh). For a 1-2 year master's, the total tuition often fits within ₹20 to ₹30 lakh, but this can vary by state, program, and in-state eligibility.

Keep in mind, living expenses are extra and can add $12,000 to $15,000/year (about ₹10 to ₹12 lakh/year) to your overall budget. Fees and costs are subject to change.
