Following the Supreme Court order, the Higher Education Department has directed all private universities in the State to submit audit reports, student attendance and other details of the last five years.

The Principal Secretary of Higher Education held a meeting with Vice-Chancellors and registrars of private universities on Wednesday to discuss the same.

Some universities submitted the required documents. However, some have raised objections to the attendance details. “The Supreme Court has sought financial and administrative disclosure, but the State government is even asking for students’ attendance data. Some universities have more than 4,000 students. How is it possible to provide attendance data of all the students for the last five years and why is it needed?,” questioned a representative of a private university.
