Amravati, 25 Feb (HS):- The University Grants

Commission has issued directions to the vice-chancellors of all the

universities to verify the PhD awarded by Rajasthan’s Jagdishprasad Jhabarmal

Tibrewala University. The UGC Secretary Manish Joshi has issued the directions

following detection of bogus doctoral degrees awarded by Tibrewala University.

The Standing Committee of the UGC submitted a report

on the information, data analysis, examination, and valuation of the PhD degrees

awarded by the JJTU, without following the UGC norms. The JJTU was allowed to explain its stand. It did not respond properly. Hence the UGC

has taken a firm step to verify the PhD awarded by the university.
