Orissa HC orders for second JEE to fill up vacant B.Tech seats

The Orissa High Court today ordered the state government to hold second Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) of the year to fill up huge vacancies of B.Tech and MCA seats in both government and private engineering colleges.
Adjudicating over a petition of OPECA (Odisha Private Engineering College Association), a division bench headed by Chief Justice Vineet Saran asked the state government to hold the supplementary examination only to fill up the vacant seats in the reserved categories.
Accordingly, the government has been asked to issue the notification for the examination by August 5 and complete the entire admission process by August 14.
