Balod colleges have over 2,600 vacant undergraduate seats

Balod district government colleges have over 2,600 vacant undergraduate seats after three admission phases, with an "open counseling" process ongoing. The admission portal has been reopened until August 8 for the fourth time, with admissions continuing until August 14, as many colleges report low enrollment. Colleges are encouraging students who couldn't get into larger institutions to apply, anticipating over 2,500 seats will remain unfilled.
