New Delhi, October 9

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has come out with a draft notification to revise rules for autonomous colleges. New regulations seek to encourage college autonomy for broad-based quality education and excellence. The UGC will seek feedback before finalising the rules.

The regulations shall be called the University Grants Commission (Conferment of Autonomous Status upon Colleges and Measures for Maintenance of Standards in Autonomous Colleges) Regulations, 2022. These shall apply to all colleges and institutions which are affiliated to or are constituent colleges of universities seeking autonomous college status.

The UGC has reviewed the existing regulations to align them with the recommendations of the NEP, 2020.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
