Students who cleared the SSLC exams from six districts in Malabar are facing an acute shortage of Plus One seats this year too.
The Malabar Education Movement, a Kozhikode-based non-governmental organisation that has been working towards the betterment of the education sector in this region, has accused the State government of launching the admissions process this year without properly addressing this issue.
Its general secretary O. Akshay Kumar and vice-president K.A. Nasar told the media on Tuesday that no steps were being taken to implement the recommendations of the V. Karthikeyan Nair Committee that was set up to study the scenario. The committee is learnt to have suggested shifting excess Plus One batches to districts that face a shortage and sanctioning of new batches for such places.
