Centre Moves to SC to Derecognise 44 Deemed Universities of India

As all of you know that, I am studying at D.Y.Patil University, Kolhapur. I am doing my PG Course in MS-Ophthalmology.

Today my University has been derecognized by the Government of India. Means the government will cancel the deemed status of my University and may merge with it the government university.

Here is the Abstract from the News,

The decision to move the apex court follows a government study on 126 deemed universities across the country.

While 38 deemed universities were found to doing a good job , 44 others have been given three years to improve.

The remaining 44 were found completely unfit.

The list includes the Devraj Urs University in Karnataka, DY Patil University in Maharashtra, the Manav Rachna Institute in Gurgaon and the Savita Institute and Vinayaka Mission in Tamil Nadu.

What will happened to the current Status?

However, to avoid jeopardising the future of nearly two lakhs students enrolled in these universities spread over 13 states, they would be allowed to revert back as affiliated colleges of their original universities, the Centre said in an affidavit.
