Sudha Goyal, another parent, said admissions to Delhi University have become like the nursery admission process.



"There is no equality across the country on the degrees being given to the students. What is the point of having the four-year programme," Goyal asked.



Adding to the confusion, some teachers and student groups are protesting for and against the four-year programme.



The resignation came shortly after the Supreme Court refused to intervene in the row.



The SC dismissed a plea moved by the Delhi University Teachers' Association (DUTA) seeking cancellation of the University Grants Commission (UGC) order asking the Delhi University (DU) to scrap its four-year undergraduate programme.



The plea was filed by former DUTA president Aditya Narayan Mishra. The apex court also directed DUTA to approach the Delhi High Court for any relief in connection with the case.



With the row over FYUP escalating, a large number of colleges affiliated to the Delhi University today deferred admissions till the crisis is resolved.
