UGC sets about updating varsity data on its website
The existing website of the UGC has created a webpage for each university, where the university must update information on the number of teachers, student enrollment, budgetary allocations by the commission, grants released and UGC certificates.

"The UGC is creating an ID code and password for each university in this regard," Prakash said.

The UGC, a statutory organisation set up by the union government in 1956, looks after the coordination, determination and maintenance of standards of university education in the country. It provides recognition to universities in India, and disburses funds to such recognised universities and colleges.
