An expert revealed that in the year 2015, the last allotment in the government colleges was to a candidate with a rank of 480. So, now the authorities are hopeful to see an improvement in the second list.
Also, there is the likely conversion of vacant NRI seats in government colleges to the general pool. They have 41 seats under the NRI category that can be transferred. However, the only problem is that the petition is pending in the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
All students who have been allotted seats on Friday, 16th September will have to report the concerned college latest by 20th September.
