News India Live, Digital Desk: A very worrying news has come out from West Bengal, which has raised many questions on the state’s higher education system. According to recent reports, there is a big problem in the process of admission in undergraduate (UG) seats in West Bengal colleges, due to which more than 70% of the seats are lying vacant! This situation has become a lot of trouble for both students and parents.

Many major reasons are being given behind the vacant seats. In this, the ‘delay’ in the admission process is a big reason. When the process is not completed on time, students turn to other states or private institutions. Apart from this, the controversy over the ‘Other Backward Classes (OBC)’ reservation in the state is also becoming a major reason in the policies. The issue has created confusion for both students and colleges wishing to take admission.

The vacancy of such a large number of seats is a serious sign for the future and youth of the state. To improve this situation as soon as possible, the state government and concerned officials will have to take immediate effective steps so that the future of the students is not dark and they have the opportunity to get higher education at the right time.
