Parmendra Yadav, a student from Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, has no roots whatsoever in Karnataka, neither does anybody else from his family. Yet, Yadav has the golden pass a Common Entrance Test (CET) admission ticket!
Yadav had not fudged his records, nor was he impersonating for another candidate. He is, in fact, a victim of the CET Cells heartless decision to allow every applicant to take the test only to be told at a later stage that they are not eligible for a seat in Karnataka. Yadav and over a dozen other non-Karnataka candidates were issued hall tickets for the test on Tuesday.
And thanks to the Cell, few know that their effort has been in vain. We have allowed everyone to take the test. When they return for the seat selection process, we will tell them that they are not eligible for a seat as only the CET scores of Karnataka students are valid for a seat in any college of the state, a CET official stated.
