My husband's friend, a bank manager looked crest fallen when I visited his house yesterday. The reason for his dull mood was his daughter is yet to gain admission in an engineering college.
She has not secured good marks and thus she can't hope to get into any of the reputed institutions. All she can hope for is opt for a faculty that is not in high demand. Even the news that there will be more seats to grab with the addition of more than 50 engineering colleges this year in our state, did not cheer her up.
More engineering colleges means more shortage of quality academic staff. This genuine concern prevails in several campuses among students and parents.
Though the Government is yet to address this vexing issue, students pin their hopes and their parents sell their assets to meet the educational expenses.
