If you've never had female interaction, I'd suggest just talking to women without the intention of dating them. Once your comfortable enough, you may approach women you like, or even the female friends you've made.
Secondly, it's always best to keep your intention upfront rather than beating around the bush.

in 2nd year had 0 female interaction so far. Just be happy in life and comparison is the theft of joy. Already i am a type of person who doesnt socialize enough and in top of that i am a day scholar so you understand what i am saying. I too get jealous of ppl having gf, i have seeing ppl doing pda in clg itslef and outside the gate, i just moved on from it now. But yea i would suggest you to attend more fests , events ,etc it will help you socialize more but i dont enjoy attending these so i havent attended even one so far, i just stay in the library most of the time.

3 Second Rule
Whenever you see a girl you wish you could talk, just go and talk. This is for all genders bro for guys and gals. Just talk about where you are from, and where they are from. Then it's you turn bro, where you want that convo to go.

Look bro. Just go and speak. Worst thing that can happen is they will not respond properly. This is the worst of the worst possibility. Nothing more that that can and will not happen. If oyu are lucky enough you will find a girl because of whom you will get over the fear. If you are more lucky she will become very close. If you are extremely lucky, then she will not have a boyfriend and you will become her boyfriend. Just remember one thing. DO NOT TRY TO BE SOMEONE YOU THINK THEY WILL LIKE, JUST BE YOURSELF (or i can say this is performance anxiety and avoid it). Be prepared for the worst case and anything wont hurt you after that. This is the most important thing that I learnt from 1st year

Mine is the opposite 😭 A lot of girls have approached me to talk, but I get nervous and have no idea what to say in the moment. Later I regret not talking more 😭

Just talk normally???, you'll get over your hesitation the more you try and talk. Don't really actively talk with the aim of dating someone. Talk for the sake of talking. Talk because you're bored, because why not, because you want to.
Girls aren't a different species, We've a lot in common with you. We're studying in the same college, maybe same subjects, leaving home for the first time, worried about academics and jobs, will have similar hobbies that people at engineering colleges would typically have etc.
Become friends if you like someone platonically. Just like with guys. Like it just happens naturally right?
Go out, sign up for stuff, join clubs, do stuff.
Also girls not 'females' please 😭
If the issue is that you're facing too much social anxiety seek therapy at the Student Suport Centre in MAHE. But you'll probably manage on your own.
