Updated UGC Fake Universities List: The University Grants Commission (UGC) has added the National Institute of Management Solution, Delhi, to its list of fake universities. The Institute is not recognised by the UGC under Section 2(f)/ Section 3 of the Act 1956. The Institute is not entitled to award degrees. In its notice, UGC has said that any degrees issued by the Institute so far are not valid for higher education or government job purposes.
The Commission, in a strongly worded message, has asked parents, students and the public at large not to take admission in the NIMS, which is a ‘self-styled institution’. This is the list of institutions which are deemed fake by UGC.
