There are a lot of government colleges in India , so to tell how many total seats are there in government colleges in India it would be difficult.  I would like to make aware of the fact that there are approx 10 thousand seats in IITs and about 20 thousand seats in the NITs . Also there are some reputed colleges which are state funded such as DTU and NSIT . So there would be approximately 50 thousand seats of the colleges which are considered to be grade A colleges.
