Regulation of Standards of Higher Education in the Country

The UGC has issued regulations for regulating the establishment and maintenance of standards in private universities. These regulations are available at https://bsmedia.business-standard.comwww.ugc.ac.in/oldpdf/regulations/establishment_maintenance.pdf. UGC has further informed that, as per its policy on territorial jurisdiction of a University, a University established or incorporated by or under a State Act shall operate only within the territorial jurisdiction allotted to it under its Act and in no case beyond the territory of its location. Franchising of Study Centres is not allowed by UGC.
