Premier tag for JU but record engg seats empty

Kolkata | Friday | 13th July, 2018

Summary:

As many as 254 seats in the blue-chip engineering faculty are still vacant with the third round of counselling over. In the end, only 4 seats were empty in the engineering faculty. But even that will leave more than 100 seats vacant, forcing the institute to compromise on quality and open up for aspirants with poor score on general merit list. Last year, there were only 150 seats vacant after the third round of counselling. “This is the first time we have so many unfilled seats in engineering after the third round of counselling,” a senior JU official said..
