As UGC has been created by an Act of the Parliament and cannot be unilaterally scrapped, the Ministry of Human Resource Development constituted a Committee of experienced and credible academicians to recommend suggestions for restructuring and strengthening UGC. The objective of the Ministry is to give mandate to the Committee to analyse, review and recommend to the Ministry, the architecture required and any other suggestion to strengthen UGC, and thereafter the Ministry will take a view on the suggestion and work upon it.
