Allotment of Engineering Seats: Kerala High Court
Allotment of engineering seats has become a big problem when Kerala High Court has asked AICTE to submit the latest regulations used for conducting entrance admissions. A question has been raised on the addition of plus two marks to entrance test rank to decide merit for engineering seats. Justice Antony Dominic has asked AICTE standing counsel S Krishnamoorthy to submit a copy of the latest regulations so that they can continue hearing on the petitions.
Court has directed the regulations after the AICTE counsel challenged the argument of by K Ramakumar, the counsel of petitioners, that the council's regulations is against adding plus two marks. AICTE has made a point and said that the regulations mentioned by the petitioners belong to 2003, whereas the latest regulations of council's came out in 2010-11 and many provisions are different.
