Problems with Admission Process

Teachers say the new way of admitting students is causing problems. The system is hard for many students to use. It is especially hard for students from poor backgrounds. Some students could not take the CUET exam or did not understand how to apply. Now the university is letting students apply with their board exam marks to fill empty seats.

The centralised allocation system is complicated and lacks transparency. Students from marginalised sections suffer the most under this system.

The deadline for colleges to finish admissions has been moved to September 12. Follow The Rising News for more verified updates.
