List of private universities in India
In-game article clicks load inline without leaving the challenge.
State private universities in India are regulated under the UGC (Establishment and Maintenance of Standards in Private University) Regulations, 2003. Per these regulations, state private universities are established by an Act of a State Legislative Assembly and listed by the UGC in the Gazette upon receiving the Act. The UGC sends committees to inspect the state private universities and publishes their inspection report.
The UGC publishes and regularly updates the lists of state private universities. The earliest date of notification is that of Sikkim Manipal University, 11 October 1995. State private universities were established in 26 of the 28 states of India and in none of the 8 union territories.
Section 12 (B) of the UGC Act of 1956 also grants the UGC the right to "allocate and disburse, out of the Fund of the Commission, grants to Universities..." As such, the UGC may declare a state private university as "Included under 12(B) of the UGC Act, 1956". Updates to these declarations are done in meetings of the UGC and published in the minutes.
