Mumbai, February 24: The Bombay High Court today allowed private unaided institutions to conduct their own Common Entrance Tests for Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management (PGDBM) courses for the academic year 2011-12.
Division bench of Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice S J Vazifdar today stayed the circulars issued by the state government and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) stating that they would conduct a single CET for admission to all PGDBM courses.
The association of private unaided institutes had opposed the decision by moving HC. It said colleges had already chalked out CET schedules.
Yet, the state published a notice on January 1, 2011 stating that it would conduct a single CET, for all colleges.
“It is not possible to have a single common entrance test with same pattern and eligibility as there are several disciplines and categories in the courses.
