    Hyderabad: The University Grants Commission (UGC), India’s top higher education regulatory body, has taken strict action against three universities in Rajasthan for not following its regulations regarding PhD programs.

    The UGC has banned these universities from admitting students into PhD courses for the next five years. The institutions affected by this decision are OP JS University in Churu, Sunrise University in Alwar, and Singhania University in Jhunjhunu.

    To ensure compliance with regulations, the UGC has formed a standing committee to monitor these universities. This committee will check if the universities are following proper procedures for awarding PhD degrees. It will also suggest corrective measures and recommend actions against institutions that violate the rules.
