UDF walks out of Kerala Assembly over lack of enough Plus One seats for SSLC pass outs

Leader of the Opposition V. Satheesan said an estimated 4,19,653 students had qualified for admission to Plus One course
Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) Opposition walked out of the Assembly on October 4, slamming the government for its “failure” to ensure an adequate number of higher secondary Plus One seats for SSLC pass outs.
Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan said an estimated 4,19,653 students had qualified for admission to Plus One course.
However, the yawning gap between the high number of Plus One aspirants and the relatively low number of seats available in public-funded schools would force a large number of eligible students from struggling families out of the mainstream of affordable education. Unaided schools that levy a high fee would be their only recourse.
