The seats will be increased or additional batches will be introduced on the basis of the number of requests received from each area.

Kerala Education Minister V Sivankutty has announced that all those students who have cleared the Kerala SSLC exam 2021 with A-plus in all subjects will get seats in the courses of their choice as the government has decided to increase the seats by 10 to 20 per cent. The government will also be starting an additional batch in various districts and taluks of the state.

The Minister further said the seats will be increased or additional batches will be introduced on the basis of the number of requests received from each area. The Minister made the announcement while answering a query, put to him during a question hour in the Assembly, on whether the government is planning to ensure all those students who secure A plus in all subjects get the courses they want. 

The queries came in the backdrop of complaints from students and parents that those who have scored A-plus in all subjects are also finding it difficult to get the course of their choice in plus one (class 11).

Sivankutty said that out of the around 1.2 lakh students who got A plus in all subjects, only about 5,800 were left who did not get the course of their choice even after the second supplementary allotment which got over last week. He assured that all such students would get the courses of their choice.

To which, the Leader of Opposition in the Assembly, V D Satheesan, said that before bringing out the second supplementary list, the government ought to have first carried out school transfers and course combination transfers.
