The 15 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and the Ministry of HRD have been served a notice by the Delhi High Court to clarify the selection process through the Joint Entrance Examination conducted by IITs, reports Zee News

A Case was Filed by Professor Rajeev Kumar from IIT Kharagpur. The Professor  feels that the IIT-JEE Selection Process is a fraud. He strongly feels that the IIT JEE in its current format is not transparent. No one is aware as to how they select candidates.
Prof. Kumar had earlier filed a PIL in the Kolkata High Court which was dismissed.

Every year tens of thousands of students appear for the JEE seeking a berth in the elite technology schools. Currently India has 15 IITs including the eight new ones who have started operation in the last two years.

In 2010 over 400,000 students will appear in the IIT-JEE scheduled for April 11.
