JNTUH Cancelled 42000 Engineering Seats in Telangana - 2015

The JNTU Hyderabad has cancelled as many as 42000 Engineering (B.Tech)
seats in Telangana state. The decision has been taken by the JNTUH
after proposals for the cancellation of seats by the respective
colleges have been received. 13 Engineering colleges have also applied
for the closure and JNTUH has approved these proposals as well.

This is a significant development after the bifurcation of AP and
creation of Telangana. The engineering colleges in Telangana may be
feeling the dearth of students in the wake of bifurcation.

On the other hand, The APSCHE has received more than 2.5 lakhs
applications for EAMCET 2015 in Andhra Pradesh. This is indicating
that the AP students are preferring to study in their own state rather
than in Hyderabad.

The overwhelming number of engineering colleges in and around
Hyderabad has resulted in concentration of engineering education and
lakh of proper facilities in colleges. Some more seats are likely to
be cancelled in Telangana after inspections by JNTUH and by the time
of counseling.
