The Bachelor of Vocation courses will be treated at par with diploma in engineering or a BSc degree for lateral admission to engineering courses, the AICTE has clarified.

“It is, therefore, clarified that BVoc course is treated at par with Diploma in Engineering and BSc degree for the purpose of admission in BTech or BE programme through lateral entry,” the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) said in an official order.

For admission in BTech and BE programme through lateral entry to second year, a candidate must have passed minimum three years diploma examination in any branch of engineering and technology, the council further said.

A BSc degree from recognised university and passed Class XII examination with mathematics as a subject is also in the eligibility criteria, the AICTE said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
