Panel report by month-end

Special Correspondent

CHENNAI: The M. Anandakrishnan Committee, constituted by the State Government to recommend modalities for abolishing the common entrance test for admission to professional undergraduate courses, will submit its report by the end of this month.

"We have received over 3,000 responses from students and parents so far. Most of them are not in favour of the CET. We have also analysed data regarding the TNPCEE and the Board examination results of the past five years. Based on this, the committee will submit its recommendations to the Government,'' committee chairman M. Anandakrishnan told reporters on Saturday.
