122 Engineering Colleges in India Shut Down With AICTE's Nod

Around 122 colleges in India have been shut down progressively during the academic year 2016 to 2017. The higher education regulatory body AICTE has granted progressive closure to these colleges after they sought it. Maharashtra, Gujarat and Haryana are the places where most of these colleges are located. However, the students who are already pursuing their studies will not be affected by this move as the closure will happen only after their completion and their certificates would remain valid.

The numbers in each state are listed below:

Gujarat - 15
Telangana - 7
Karnataka - 11
Uttar Pradesh - 12
Punjab - 6
Rajasthan - 11
Haryana - 13

Why were the colleges closed?

A senior AICTE official said, "Failing to survive, private engineering colleges either seek progressive closure to ultimately shut down or turn into polytechnic or science and art colleges. Since the best lot of students takes admission in prestigious colleges like IITs, NITs and other centrally funded institutions, the others left in the fray settle for private colleges. The low number of enrollments makes it difficult for institutions to survive.''
