ORDER

1. IT APPEARS THAT IN THE ENGINEERING COLLEGES IN THE STATES OF TAMIL NADU AND ANDHRA PRADESH, A NUMBER OF SEATS OF GOVERNMENT QUOTA AND ALSO OF MANAGEMENT QUOTA ARE UNFILLED EVEN AFTER ADMITTING THOSE WHO WERE IN THE LIST PREPARED AFTER QUALIFYING THE ENTRANCE EXAMINATION CONDUCTED BY THE STATE AS ALSO BY THE CONSORTIUM. IF THE PERMISSION AS SOUGHT IN THESE APPLICATIONS IS NOT GRANTED, THESE SEATS WOULD GO WASTE.

2. HAVING HEARD LEARNED COUNSEL FOR THE PARTIES AND WITHOUT THE ORDER BEING TREATED AS A PRECEDENT, WE PERMIT THE ENGINEERING COLLEGES IN THESE TWO STATES TO FILL THE UNFILLED SEATS, WHETHER OF MANAGEMENT QUOTA OR OF GOVERNMENT QUOTA, WITHIN A PERIOD OF ONE WEEK SUBJECT TO THE CONDITION THAT ONLY THOSE WHO ARE OTHERWISE ELIGIBLE AND QUALIFIED WOULD BE GRANTED A ADMISSIONS, THOUGH THEY MAY NOT HAVE TAKEN EITHER OF THE AFORESAID ENTRANCE EXAMINATION. ANY HIGHER STANDARDS FIXED BY THE STATE GOVERNMENTS WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE COMPLETED WHILE GRANTING ADMISSION.

3. THE IAS ARE DISPOSED OF ACCORDINGLY.
