Delhi government convened a special Cabinet meeting on Friday to approve the draft Private Universities Bill, which is set to be tabled in the ongoing Monsoon Session of the Delhi Assembly. If approved, the Bill will create a legal framework to set up private universities in the Capital. As per the draft Bill, private universities can establish constituent colleges and off-campus centres in Delhi but cannot provide affiliation to colleges that do not come under it. Officials said that as per the draft Bill, before any private university is established, its proposal will undergo a detailed evaluation. The proposed private universities will be entirely self-financed and will not receive regular financial grants from the government.
