With the implementation of “End of Quota System in Punjab Universities and colleges” the children and relatives of VVIP’s could not be able to get admission and admission would only be granted on merit basis.  There are 15% seats reserved for Quota System in Government Colleges and Universities in Punjab.
 It is the right of poor and needy but talented students to achieve these seats on merit basis but earlier children and relatives of VIPs with low merit were the emperor under quota system.
