Maharaja Ganga Singh University has given affiliated private colleges two months to comply with affiliation conditions, a decision that could affect pending affiliation renewal cases for about 350 colleges. The decision was taken at a special meeting of the Vidya Parishad chaired by vice-chancellor Prof. Narsi Ram Bishnoi. The university said pending affiliation renewal cases for the 2025-26 academic session will be settled for colleges that meet the conditions within that period. Judicial cases are excluded from this decision.
The Vidya Parishad also decided to align the affiliation fee with that of Maharshi Dayanand Saraswati University, Ajmer, and revise research fees. It recommended a policy for temporary appointments of visiting, contract and honorary teachers. The university made it mandatory for affiliated colleges to create a five-lakh-rupee fixed deposit in the joint name of the university registrar and the college, with a minimum tenure of five years, under the endowment fund. A committee will be formed to suggest changes to the examination system in line with the National Education Policy.
The new deadlines and fees at Maharaja Ganga Singh University directly affect roughly 350 private colleges, many of which have pending affiliation renewal cases from the 2025-26 academic session. Colleges that fail to meet the requirements within two months face losing their affiliation, while those that comply will have their pending cases resolved. The university has left judicial matters outside this decision, meaning court cases continue separately. A committee will propose exam system changes aligned with the National Education Policy, and the vice-chancellor is authorised to act on its recommendations. The next step is for the committee to submit its proposals.
