Self-finance scheme in colleges gets confused with second shift

The dispensation of that scheme too has been deferred to next year by the Punjab government. The self-finance in medical colleges not only led to costly medical education on one hand and the sub standard education on the other which is unethical.

As such there was reason to put ban on self-finance scheme in such professional colleges but this does not mean disbandment of second shift which only costs Rs 5,000 extra from the usual Rs 5,000 fee in polytechnic institutes. It also does not imply the quality of education matter as only candidates with high merit and eligible to take admission in morning shift are enrolled in the second shift in polytechnics with the purpose to accommodate more and more students due to rising trend in this type of education.
