Do we need these many Engineering Colleges in Andhra Pradesh?

Engineering Education in Andhra Pradesh had become a fun. I have no idea about why All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE, New Delhi, Hyderabad) is still giving permissions to establish new engineering colleges though we had an enough number. Already saturation limit has also been crossed in this regard and still people are establishing new colleges.

I am not against engineering education, but I am worried about all those outcomes (Engineering Graduates) who are already in the market with no proper jobs. When almost many-an-educational institutions are failing to provide good infrastructure and faculty to the students, how can we expect the outcomes to be? It is more than pathetic but still education with out proper amenities like laboratories are running for ruining the lives of the students.

Always I ask my conscience, do we need these many engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh? Not necessary isn't it? If one cannot provide good education, if one cannot create a skilled persona, and if one cannot make a good professional, then do we need these many mushroom like engineering colleges?
