Tribal organisations demand more Plus One seats for Wayanad

Tribal organizations in Wayanad, Kerala, are demanding additional Plus One seats to accommodate students from Scheduled Tribe communities. They argue that the current allocation process leaves thousands of students without admission, disproportionately affecting marginalized groups.
