Remove 75% attendance Rule in Engineering Colleges

The Issue

75% attendance rule has always become a problem of stress to 80% of Engineering Students . Attending college for 8 hours and completing Journals,Assignments, Projects,Submissions and much more becomes a source of stress. Handling both this at the same time becomes a problem. We see students from IIT who are not bounded to such rule and still Do well in Academics and other areas of Interest. I Don't find 75% attendance rule anywhere related to Academic performance. One should be allowed to Select which lectures to attend and which Not to as Self Study in specific subjects are possible.
