The Supreme Court's refusal on Wednesday to stay the Andhra Pradesh High Court judgement that quashed the 4.5 percent quota for minorities will have its impact on the ongoing counselling for various IITs as minorities will have no reserved seats for them in IIT. By introducing the 4.5 per cent quota reservation exclusively for the minorities in the IIT, the Centre had sought to provide admission to at least 325 minority candidates from the Muslim and converted Christian communities in the IITs. Under the sub-quota system the beneficiary had the option to choose a better institute and simultaneously a better chance to select a good stream. There are a total of 9,647 seats in different IITs including 4,722 for the general category students. A total 17,464 candidates were shortlisted for counselling this year. The counselling for admission to 15 Indian Institute of Technology (IITs), Institute of Technology-Banaras Hindu University (IT- BHU) and the Indian School of Mines (ISM), Dhanbad is underway and the students who cracked the JEE-2012 are participating in it. The counselling website had been opened for the shortlisted candidates from May 18, giving them a chance to opt the courses of their choice and report in person for counselling.
