Bengal Colleges to Fill Vacant Undergraduate Seats Independently

The Education Department in Bengal is making sure that all the college seats get filled.

They've told government and aided colleges to take over the job of filling the empty seats after the central admission process is done.

This year's college admissions started after August 22, delayed by legal issues about quotas.

Colleges will now independently manage the admissions, even during the Puja holiday.

Colleges need to finish filling these spots by November 7.

So far, of the nearly a million seats available, only a little over a quarter have been filled through the central portal.
