Dharti Patel, a parent, revealed that nowadays a middle-class household is investing around Rs. 6.5 lakh to Rs. 10 lakh on school tuition and then fees for engineering and professional courses for their children. Hence, they admit their children in popular institutes or deemed universities so that they can bag better placements with higher packages. No parent would want their children to end up with a salary of Rs.8,000 to Rs.10,000 to start with.

Janak Khandwala, President, SFC Management Association explained that the number of students opting for engineering courses has seen a drop recently. The government had given permission for 12 new engineering colleges in the last two years. The major reason for the decline in admissions is bad infrastructure, poor placements and lack of the faculty.
