Protest Erupts Over Delay in College Admission Merit List
Some students are upset because they haven't been told if they can go to college yet.
They took to the streets to tell the government to release the list of students who are accepted, so they can start classes.
They are worried that if the government takes too long, it will be harder for regular students to go to college.
The students believe the government is trying to hurt the government-run colleges so that private colleges will be able to make more money.
AIDSO protested the delay in publishing the merit list for undergraduate admissions.
Protesters demanded quick publication of the merit list and commencement of college admissions.
95 days have passed since the Higher Secondary results were published.
The state higher education department hasn't published the merit list.
Protesters fear the delay will discourage students from higher education.
