‘Many Leftist activists, mostly from Kerala, have taken admission in the Humanities department. Many of them are associated with SFI, DYFI, CPI. Most of them are from non-engineering backgrounds and have taken admissions through tests and interviews conducted by department faculties. The admission process is highly questionable as it is mostly based on department faculty recommendations rather than any open competitive exam score. They haven’t taken admission through JEE, GATE, CAT or any other tough competitive exam.’
