the HC direction to TN Govt is welcome. While i am of the opinion that 69% reservations for the backward has not affected the quality of professional and technical education in any way, more seats in institutions is a necessity `coz all eligible aspirants dont get seats in disciplines of their choice due to insufficient seat availability. Let all those who desire higher education in disciplines of their choice get seats, do their best and become national human assets. Only, while increasing the seat numbers, care must be taken so that quality of imparting professional knowledge do not suffer. Better compensation to teaching staff could be an answer as it will attract and retain them in the profession instead of looking for greener pastures! As for infrastructure all professional colleges should have enough of funds to create it, with all the capitation money they receive on admission to the management quota seats!
