The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has sent notices to 101 institutions across the country for not meeting quality standards. AICTE has sent notices to these technical institutions ahead of new academic session 2013-14 to improve their quality and other requirements.
Maximum numbers of colleges 26 are from Andhra Pradesh, 23 are in Maharashtra and 12 colleges from Uttar Pradesh. Six institutions in Tamil Nadu, including one business school, have been asked to explain their position. Some of them have also been asked to explain why they have not complied with the rules and regulations for setting up an institution.
Former Vice Chancellor of Anna University, E Balaguruswamy said, “As many as 40 per cent of all engineering colleges can be closed down for want of faculty shortage, infrastructure requirement and harassment of students and faculty.
