Solan Acceding to the demand of 21 private polytechnic institutes, the state government has finally relaxed admission norms to enable more candidates to secure admissions in various courses.
The relaxation came as a major relief to the managements of private institutes where a large number of seats had fallen vacant after the last counselling session in August.
Vijay Chandan, director, Technical Education, while confirming the relaxation, said one-time relaxation had been granted to 21 private institutes where almost 30 to 40 per cent seats had fallen vacant. All seats had, however, been filled in the eight polytechnic institutes being run by the state government. About six different courses were being offered in these institutes.
As per the relaxed norms, any matriculate could opt for a polytechnic course and the earlier stipulation of 50 per cent marks had now been waived off. Further, the ITI students who have appeared for their exams and were awaiting results could secure provisional admission in the lateral entry category and the mandatory condition of appearing in the Polytechnic Admission Test had been relaxed. This relaxation would enable ITI students to seek admission in various three-year polytechnic courses who had earlier been denied this opportunity. Read Full Story
