Anbumani has highlighted a significant issue in Tamil Nadu's higher education system, claiming that 43% of available seats in government arts and science colleges are vacant.
According to his statement, there are a total of 1.26 lakh seats across 181 colleges, yet only approximately 71,500 have been filled, leaving a substantial number of over 55,000 seats empty.
This situation raises concerns regarding the standards of education in these institutions and the potential implications for students seeking quality higher education.
