Delhi University is all set to gear up for the admissions through sports quota, giving colleges a choice to make their picks based on specific needs.
Five per cent of seats in all DU colleges have been reserved under sports and extra-curricular activities quota. The university has been trying to usher transparency into the sports quota mechanism, which has been termed biased by the critics over the years.
“This year, the trials will be held for specific positions that a team is looking to fill. The colleges have been asked to submit the data by the end of this month. The move will streamline the trial process and there will be no more confusion. We have decided to narrow down to the specific level of every sports activity,” a university official said.
More than 3,000 students apply for DU every year through sports quota such as football, cricket, etc.
“The colleges will now have to spend less time and the entire process will become hassle-free,” the official added.
