The current intake is 2,310. The BCI has also directed the University to cancel evening classes from next year. However, this year, the evening classes will take place, as scheduled.

The decision has been taken by BCI as the University does not have proper infrastructure facilities and intake requirements. Moreover, the University failed to recruit permanent teachers as per regulations of UGC and BCI.
