For Pressing the demand of reservation and preference for Delhi Students in Delhi University Admissions, thousands of students and parents today met in Mavlankar Hall New Delhi.
While addressing the gathering former union minister and MP Sh Vijay Goel, who have been raising this issue for the last 6 years, said that our movement is presently focusing on four demands:
Give 85% reservation in those 18 colleges which are 100% funded by Delhi Government.
An eligibility test should be conducted so that cheaters are kept out.
5% Weightage in Cutoff to be given to students who have passed 12th from Delhi CBSE.
Open New colleges and start evening colleges in existing colleges.
Mr. Goel said that the new National Policy of Education Draft Report also supported his demand for eligibility test after class 12th for college admissions. Soon he will also be going to meet the Hon’ble Union Education Minister Smt. Smiriti Irani on this Issue.
Educationist Sh. S.L. Jain said that the Delhi University has only 54,000 seats in 61 colleges where 50% seats are reserved for SC, ST, OBC etc. Presently ~2,23,000 students have passed from Delhi CBSE. Out of general category of ~26,000 Delhi students got only ~11,000 seats.
The President of Delhi Management Mr. R.C. Jain said that it is very painful for the citizens of Delhi that their children are not able to get admission in colleges and courses of their own choice and in their home state, in spite of getting more than 60% marks. The problem is particularly acute for the girl students belonging to Delhi as their parents are reluctant to send them out of Delhi for higher education. Therefore, most of the Girls, who could not get admission in Delhi, are compelled to discontinue their studies. Students belonging to poor families, who study in Government schools, also suffer as they are unable to get admission in Delhi University colleges.
On this occasion many students has expressed their difficulties and are anguish for not getting the admission in DU. The 12th Pass Ms. Isha who got 95% marks said that she wants admission tin SRCC but most of the seats are cornered by outsiders. She came here to support the eligibility test.
Another student Deepak whose parents came and settled 10 years back from Bihar said that I have passed my 12th examination from Delhi. Now even I may have to leave Delhi if I don’t get admission in DU.
Jatin who scored 52% marks in 12th class said that when the other state reserved seats for their students than why not in Delhi. I want either 5% marks preference for Delhi Students in DU admissions or 85% seats reservation in Delhi Government colleges.
National Education Policy Report also support my Demand for eligibility test after class 12th for college admissions — Vijay Goel

Education is a progressive discovery of our ignorance. Hence it’s imperative in the interest of societal development that its children and youth are well educated. It’s a shame that Delhi despite being the capital of India is not fully literate whereas a small state like Kerala has attained 100% literacy.
Wateris vital for the existence of life but we need to realize that like all the other resources it is not unlimited and, going by the experts’ opinion, the next war could be fought because of it.
Youth Development Youth is the backbone of our country’s progress and we all need to work towards their overall development. Apart from providing training & employment in traditional careers I have always encouraged active youth participation in politics.
Housing To own a home, irrespective of the size, is a dream cherished by many. I understand this sentiment and that is why I championed the cause to help protect the applicants who were promised homes and felt cheated by the Delhi government.
Power is one of the basic amenities of life happens to be a matter of great concern for the citizens of Delhi. Faulty meters, power shortage and inflated power bills are the most common grievances faced by every other citizen.
