University Grants Commission says get-from-India foreign degrees not valid
Friday, 15 December 2023 A business school in Karjat offers UK university degrees to hundreds of students without any interaction with UK faculty or campus. Similarly, a Bengaluru college provides academic pathways for international degrees without requiring students to leave the country. However, these arrangements have been questioned by the University Grants Commission (UGC), which states that degrees from unrecognized institutes will not be valid. Students who have enrolled in these programs have discovered that their degrees are not recognized, leading some to take legal action.
Join us as we speak with Sukhdev Thorat, former Chairman of the University Grants Commission (UGC), about the recent unprecedented disruptions in India's higher education examination system. In this revealing interview, Thorat discusses the impact of the centralised admission policies introduced by the New Education Policy 2020, and the move from decentralised to centralised testing systems. He highlights how outsourcing exam administration to private parties has led to increased chances of exam leaks and compromised the integrity of these crucial assessments. Thorat also explains the consequences of these changes on students aspiring for higher education and academic positions. With the frequency of exam leaks and other issues escalating, Thorat's insights offer a deep understanding of the current challenges facing India's education system and the urgent need for reforms. Don't miss this crucial conversation on the state of higher education in India and what it means for the future of millions of students.

Bengaluru's ongoing monsoon has severely waterlogged at least 180 prominent roads, including key areas near Hebbal Circle and the Outer Ring Road (ORR). Despite previous warnings, including a fatal incident at the KR Circle underpass, municipal authorities have failed to address the issue. Ongoing construction projects, pothole-ridden roads, and poor drainage maintenance contribute to the problem. The situation has led to traffic chaos, vehicle damage, and safety hazards across the city.
