New UGC system to evaluate institutes on NEP implementation, offer benefits

India Today  

The University Grants Commission is developing a system to evaluate higher education institutions based on their progress in implementing the National Education Policy 2020. This new system will play a role in determining privileges and entitlements under various UGC regulations. The UGC’s evaluation framework involves a two-step process: Eligibility qualifiers: HEIs must meet mandatory benchmarks to qualify for privileges or entitlements.
