large number of students who reached DAV (PG) College for procuring admission forms have returned empty-handed because around 5,000 admission forms were sold in an hour after the opening of the admission counter. It seems students union leaders purchased most of the admission forms and sold them to those who are likely vote them during the students’ union election. large number of students turning up on the second day of admission process in the college triggered traffic congestion, causing inconvenience to the commuters. long queue of vehicles were seen outside the college gate too, compounding on the problem.
DAV (PG) College principal Devendra Bhasin said that taking cognisance of a large number of students’ leaders having purchased admission forms on Wednesday, the officials at the admission counter were directed on Thursday to give only two or three admission forms to one student who stand in a queue outside the counter. “Around 5, 000 admission forms were sold after the opening of the admission counter. A total of 14, 000 admission forms were sold in the college over the past two days after admission process began,” he added.
He further said that admission in the college will be done on sanctioned seats and around 5500 students will be allowed to enroll in various bachelor degree courses in the college. Students can purchase admission prospectus from admission counter by August 23 and submit them by the same day.
