Indian standard of education system is certainly a good as compared to the other under developed country. In the higher institutions and AICTE approved college of learning the infrastructure could be lacking due to economical problems generally speaking except for a smaller proportion of the institutes. There are also organizations of the government which ensure that the education standards in India are maintained AICTE guide lines.
We have already learned about a couple of such organizations such as IISc, IITs, and IIMs, and other repudiated institutes which are following UGC and AICTE guide lines. One of the biggest confusion in this case is whether a student should join such a course or avoid it.
First we would understand of what the agencies like UGC, DEC and AICTE mean and what are their roles, responsibilities, and spheres of influence, you can read the different articles published on these individual institutes.
In brief, UGC is the highest authority of government of India as far as higher education and the universities are concerned. Therefore no any university can exist to run colleges without the approval of UGC.
In India, any universities may be private, state government; central government, deemed, etc. but irrespective of their category, a university which is approved by the UGC and listed in their list on the official website is a genuine and legitimate university. AICTE approved college
Hence we should aware from all above discussed aspects to avoid forgery. And you can safe your educational qualifications.
A university once approved by UGC or AICTE has full authority to run any courses it wants and normally has many colleges affiliated to these organizations for the purposes of imparting education.
We can take a good example of this were the MBA and MCA course conducted by many educational society which required AICTE approval but the Honorable Supreme Court of India declared in a recent judgment in April 2013 that the AICTE can only act in an advisory capacity and not a governing body which is the UGC only.
