Allahabad, Sep 1 (UNI) The Allahabad High Court today directed to maintain the status quo with regard to admission and re-counselling for remaining seats in engineering colleges under Uttar Pradesh State Engineering Admission Test (UPSEAT) for the academic year 2006-07.

The order was passed by Justice S N Srivastava on a writ petition filed by Welfare Association of Self Finance Institutes, Noida -- a body of private engineering colleges.

She demanded an inquiry in this regard.
