It was further submitted that UGC is established under an Act of the Parliament for maintenance of standard of education in the country, but the impugned public notice, communication and Regulations, 2017 travel beyond the powers of the UGC. It is contended that such restriction is inconsistent with the object and nature of distance education.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Counsel for the respondents relied on judgment <em>Prof. Yashpal v. State of Chhattisgarh<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/9M9weYYm\">(2005) 5 SCC 420<\/a> submitted that establishment of a University conferring the legal status, but lacking in all the basic requirements, is clearly contrary to the constitutional scheme and is not contemplated by Article 246 of the Constitution.\u00a0 It was further submitted that on establishment of the UGC (Institutions of Eminence Deemed to be Universities) Regulations, 2017, the UGC has made provision to create a distinct category of Deemed to be Universities, called \u2018Institutions of Eminence Deemed to be Universities\u2019 which would be regulated differently from other Deemed to be Universities so as to evolve into institutions of world class in a reasonable time period.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that Regulations framed by UGC to determine standards of education, become part of the UGC Act and the same are applicable to both Open Universities as well as conventional formal Universities and in that respect, the alternative system envisaged under IGNOU Act, was not in substitution of the formal system. The distinction lay rather in the mode and manner of imparting education and hence, any Degree awarded in violation of Regulation-II of the UGC Regulations of 1985 by a University under Open University system, was held to be void.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court thus held <em>\u201cNow that the UGC has come up with the UGC (Institutions of Eminence Deemed to be Universities) Regulations, 2017, making provision to create a distinct category of Institutions of Eminence Deemed to be Universities, which would have the benefit of establishing Off-campus centres and Offshore campus, the petitioner University is free to make an application seeking declaration as \u2018Institutions of Eminence Deemed to be Universities\u2019.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p
