UGC extends deadline for feedback on 2025 draft recruitment norms until February 28
The University Grants Commission (UGC) has extended the deadline for receiving feedback on the draft recruitment and promotion norms until February 28. The proposed 2025 regulations aim to replace the 2018 guidelines, introduce new norms for vice-chancellor appointments, and offer relaxed faculty hiring rules. The draft has sparked criticism from opposition-led states, but UGC chairman M. Jagadesh Kumar assures that the changes are intended to improve university governance and align with global standards to enhance education quality.
