Despite identifying several BEd colleges running only on paper or with minimal infrastructure and faculty too have been allowed to enroll students by the affiliating universities of Haryana.The Kurukshetra university is conducting the centralized online admission for these universities this year to fill 57000 BEd seats in 466 colleges across Haryana.

Though the MDU has identify about 173 colleges which are unfit to run the courses in absence of building or teaching faculty and bracketed them in C grade. Of these 16 colleges exists only on paper as the varsity inspection team failed to find any record of its building or faculty anywhere. Similarly, the Kurukshetra university has also identified certain education colleges by categorizing these colleges as C grade.

However, the MDU has clarified in an advertisement "students shall take admission in C grade colleges at their own risk and responsibility as admission in these colleges would be purely provisional and subject to final decision against whom disciplinary proceedings are pending at the university level. The KU too has stated that admission in C grade colleges are at students' risk and responsibility subject to final decision of university.

Though both these varsities though stated that the details of category wise colleges is uploaded on its website. But the details were yet to be made available on websites on Sunday even as admission process has been on since August 16.

The MDU has barred only two colleges owned by controversial Joginder Dalal and allowed all other colleges including 16 colleges which were alloted zero marks by the inspection committee team of the varsity due to unavailability of its building and faculty. The varsity gives marks to each BEd college on a scale of 100 for having teaching and non-teaching staff (50 %), building (25%) and laboratory/library (25%).
