People of Andhra and Telangana are badly suffering with the UPA government’s hasty and thoughtless decision of dividing the state without making necessary arrangements for a smooth operation of both governments. As a result, even two months after formation of the states, the governments are not in a position to conduct medical and engineering admissions. Telangana government files a petition in Supreme Court seeking additional time for conducting admission process because of this problem only. As if the problem is not enough it further complicates by adding nativity issue to it.

Since, the admission process is interlinked between two states, the delay from T-government side, forced AP government also to hold the process. So, AP government is planning to adopt Tamilnadu model admission process that is based on Intermediate marks percentage. State government is sending a team of officials to Chennai to study the Tamilnadu model admission process. They are expected to submit their report within next 10-15 days.

If this model of admissions suits our requirement, AP government may start admissions of engineering and medical within next 3-4 weeks. In this system, the state government will directly allot the seats to the students in various colleges based on their intermediate marks percentage. If everything goes smooth with this new model of admission process, AP government may scrap the existing EMACET process from next year. However, the state government has decided to fill up only the seats in local quota and leaving 15 percent of non-local quota following the clauses mentioned in the bifurcation bill.
