Students seeking admission to Class 11 — blocked by colleges over their inability to provide non-creamy layer (NCL) certificates — have now been given a window, with the state government providing a timeline of three months for them to submit the document.

The authorities of Centralised Admission Process (CAP) were firm that admission will not be provided without the original certificate, triggering concern among students. At Fergusson College, a group of students and parents told The Indian Express that they were relieved to hear about the new window.

“Earlier, there wasn’t even a provision for provisional admission with an undertaking and the e-seva receipt, so we panicked,” said a parent.
