A circular in the name of AICTE talks about scrapping the 75% attendance rule for the engineering course.
Circular scrapping 75 per cent attendance rule was fake, confirms AICTE "First of all, we would not issue such a circular. Secondly, whoever is behind this should be caught as they have misused and forged AICTE logo as well as the national emblem," said AICTE chairman. The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has recently issued a public notice confirming that the circular regarding scrapping of 75 per cent attendance rule was fake and mischievous. [...] As per media reports, the 'fake circular' in question which was addressed to "all Directors/Principals of AICTE approved institutions" was named 'Scrapping of 75 per cent Attendance Rule and introducing Vocational Projects."
