Autonomous colleges of little benefit to students

The concept became a reality, but this is the situation where the autonomy of the autonomous colleges is now becoming a threat in the way of progress instead of the development of children.

Especially self-financing courses whose fees start from Rs 30,000 to lakhs. These fees are beyond the reach of normal parents. However, parents pay these fees for the academic progress of their children.  This is not possible because, due to the arbitrary management of autonomous colleges, admissions are made on the basis of merit. The admissions are made easier for the students of choice or those who solve financial maths.  The fees for the three self-financed courses, namely Finance, Marketing and HR, are the same.  Even after paying the huge fees, if the students do not get admission in their favorite field or subject, then what is the use of such autonomous colleges?  These colleges and their autonomous administration, which create hurdles in the educational path of the students by forcing the subjects on the students, should be investigated or the admission process should be shared. Because, the prices of certain self-financing courses  are being sought in the premises of the autonomous colleges.
