170 girl students of MITS selected for AICTE scholarship
MITS principal C. Yuvaraj told the media here on Monday that each student was awarded ₹50,000, bringing the total scholarship amount to ₹85 lakh. 'The scholarship not only eases the financial burden on the students and their parents, but also motivates young women to go places in the fields of engineering and technology. This initiative holds the key to achieving gender parity in technical education,' he said.
A ceremony was held on the campus to felicitate the awardees, attended by MITS correspondent N. Vijaya Bhaskar Choudary, executive director Keerthi Nadella, senior faculty and students. Dr. Choudary expressed pride in the achievement of the students and reiterated the institution's commitment to fostering inclusive education to provide world-class teaching to the students.

Delayed admission process holds up academic year for lakhs of Maharashtra students despite early HSC, SSC exam results
1 2 3 Pune: The academic year for lakhs of students in Maharashtra will be delayed even though the results for Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) exams were declared in May to facilitate the admission process. This year, both exams were conducted at least 10 days earlier than usual, and the results were announced two weeks ahead of the normal schedule. The academic year is now expected to commence in Aug, nearly three months after the results. Director of secondary education Shriram Panzade said the delay in FYJC admissions were caused by the enormous amount of data generated as a result of expanding online admissions across Maharashtra this year.

This has generated huge data, and processing it takes time, causing the delay. However, we are trying to expedite the process, and we will ensure that classes begin soon," he added. Approximately 13 lakh students who passed Std X are currently in limbo, awaiting admission to various courses, including First Year Junior College, polytechnic diploma courses, and Industrial Training Institutes (ITI). Some students have applied for all three. The delay in admissions is primarily due to the stalled CAP round process which affects over 20 professional courses after Std XII. Despite the early announcement of results for over 18 different Common Entrance Tests (CET) conducted in March and April, the admissions process has yet to begin. Swara Karnik, a student who appeared for the engineering CET and scored 98 percentile, said the wait is frustrating. "Our exams got over in March and we have been waiting for three months to start a new chapter in education. There is an obvious lack of coordination between the state's departments," she added. So far, 1.7 lakh students have applied for the 1.05 lakh seats across 400 engineering institutions in the state. The schedule for the merit list and document verification stages have not yet been announced. The AICTE's delayed college approval process have affected this year's admissions. This year, 15 lakh students passed the SSC exams conducted by Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, but only 12 lakh students registered for FYJC admissions. The rest can apply after the first round, expected to be announced on Thursday, is over with a week for admissions thereafter. For polytechnic diploma courses under the Directorate of Technical Education, the final application date was set for June 16. However, due to delays in students receiving certificates, this date has been extended to June 26. ITI admissions are delayed this year too, with over two lakh applications received by the directorate of vocational education and training. There are a total of 1.54 lakh seats across 419 govt and 588 private institutions in the state. The preliminary merit list will be announced on June 30, and the first round will be declared on July 9. Although a week has passed since NEET results were announced, no outline for the admission process in medical and dental branches has been presented by National Testing Agency. Approximately 1.25 lakh students have qualified for about 28,000 medical seats in Maharashtra.
