Minority educational institutions running professional courses have come under government scanner.
Following complaints that minority institutions are giving seats to deserved beneficiaries and misutilizing government schemes, the higher education department has constituted an inquiry panel involving commissioner for collegiate education, director for technical and medical education to probe the allegations.
"Of the 17 engineering and 9 medical aided minority institutions many are violating admission procedures. Deserving students are not given seats and often sold to non-minority candidate for higher price. Even the government schemes meant for minority students are reaching. The probe panel has been asked give the report within April and if colleges are found guilty, the government will black list them and withdraw all the government schemes," higher education minster CT Ravi told reporters on Friday.
The minister said the government would revise the policy for seeking minority status and it will also revise guidelines for functioning of institutions.
