No takers for 58k vacant seats in PPU, 950 in PU
PU students' welfare dean Anil Kumar said, "Nearly 950 of the total sanctioned 4,531 seats in arts, science and commerce streams, are vacant even after the end of the spot round of admissions. Finally, the university has allowed the principals of all these colleges to admit students against vacant seats on their own."
Even the colleges could not fill their sanctioned seats in popular courses running under self-financed scheme.
These courses include functional English (Patna College and B N College), BCA (B N College, Patna Science College, Magadh Mahila College, and Directorate of Distance Education), BBA (Patna College, B N College, Magadh Mahila College), biotechnology (Patna Science College and B N College), mass communications (Patna College), environmental science (Patna Science College) and social work (Magadh Mahila College).

"In Patliputra University (PPU), about half of the sanctioned seats are vacant even after three rounds of admissions. There are 1.20 lakh sanctioned seats in undergraduate courses in different constituent and affiliated colleges of PPU, but only about 62,000 students have been admitted against these seats so far," said PPU students' welfare dean Rajeev Ranjan.
When asked about the reason of seats remaining vacant in different honours subjects in PU colleges, Patna Science College's former principal S N Guha said that all subjects taught in colleges and universities are not equally popular.
"All the seats in some more popular subjects are occupied immediately after the release of merit list, but the seats in less popular subjects are not occupied even after the three or four rounds of admission," he said.
PU dean pointed out that most of the vacant seats have been reported in the subjects like Arabic, Persian, Bengali and Maithili. "The university can't compel one to study any particular subject and, hence, the seats in some subjects will remain vacant," he added.

Yadadri temple's Sanskrit Vidyapeetham upholds inclusive Vedic learning for over 70 years
NALGONDA: Established in 1952 under the supervision of the temple committee, Yadagirigutta's renowned Sri Lakshminarasimha Swamy Temple launched the Sri Lakshminarasimha Swamy Sanskrit Vidyapeetham with a clear mission: to preserve spiritual and cultural values through the promotion of Sanskrit and Vedic knowledge. For over seven decades, the institution has remained steadfast in its commitment to this cause, say officials. One of the hallmarks of this Vidyapeetham is its provision of completely free education, boarding and lodging to all students. This support from the temple ensures that financial constraints never stand in the way of learning. The peaceful, residential environment allows students to immerse themselves fully in their academic and spiritual pursuits, the officials add. While Sanskrit was once reserved for the elite, the Vidyapeetham sets an example in inclusive education by admitting students from all castes and religions without discrimination. This egalitarian approach not only makes Sanskrit accessible to all sections of society but also fosters a spirit of social harmony. It functions not just as a centre of learning, but as a space that nurtures unity and equal opportunity. Keeping up with modern times In keeping with contemporary needs, the Vidyapeetham offers more than just Sanskrit instruction. Courses in English, Telugu, History and Computers are also taught, equipping students with skills relevant to modern life. Affiliated to Mahatma Gandhi University, Nalgonda, the Vidyapeetham offers a recognised curriculum that prepares students to be both culturally rooted and professionally ready.
