The Kerala Congress government relaxed rules for starting new courses in self-financing and government-aided autonomous colleges, removing the need for a no-objection certificate. The opposition CPM and student groups claim this move promotes commercialization and undermines merit-based education. The government defends it as promoting academic autonomy and reducing corruption risks. Protests by opposition parties are expected.
