The department on Tuesday said it had noted that more than 150 students who were offered seats in the second counselling had tried to make payment of fee, but could not do so due to server issues as the log shows that payment was rejected repeatedly.

“Today we received requests from such parents, therefore to give the applications who were offered seats in the second counselling a fair chance to pay the fee, the fee portal has been opened again for all students who were offered seats but could not pay the fee for any reason during the second counselling,” a statement read.

The students have been advised to pay the fee by 4 pm on September 28. Thereafter, the third counselling will be held to fill vacant seats.
