The statement follows a similar advisory issued on December 12, 2023. Despite earlier warnings, the Commission noted that several institutions and education technology (EdTech) companies continue to offer programmes in partnership with foreign universities that are not approved by the UGC.'These degrees are not recognised,' the UGC said, adding that it would take action against colleges and EdTech firms found violating these nature of such action has not been detailed but could include penalties under existing education ADVISED TO VERIFY ACADEMIC TIE-UPSThe advisory also addressed the rise in aggressive marketing tactics used by EdTech such companies, the Commission said, advertise unrecognised international programmes across social media, television, and newspapers, often misleading students and families into believing the degrees carry weight in UGC has urged students and parents to be cautious and to verify the authenticity of foreign academic partnerships before enrolling. It warned that those who proceed with unapproved degrees would be doing so 'at their own risk and consequences.'Over the past few years, online and hybrid programmes with foreign universities have become more common, especially as digital learning has grown.

UGC cautions students against unrecognised foreign collaborations, edtech firms
The University Grants Commission (UGC), the higher education regulatory body, has issued a fresh public advisory warning students and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) against unrecognised collaborations with foreign educational providers. The UGC notice reiterates that any degree or diploma granted through such arrangements will not be valid in India and will be treated as unrecognised by the Commission. The UGC regulations require all foreign collaborations to be explicitly approved under the 2022 and 2023 frameworks that govern joint degrees, dual degrees, and the establishment of foreign campuses in India. This clarification comes in continuation of an earlier notice dated December 12, 2023, which addressed concerns related to unapproved academic collaborations between Indian HEIs and foreign institutions. The UGC has observed that several colleges and EdTech platforms continue to offer joint or online degree and diploma programmes in association with foreign entities not recognised by the Commission. 'Degrees issued through such collaborations are not recognised by the Commission,' the UGC said, warning that action would be initiated against the defaulting institutions and EdTech companies under applicable laws and regulations. The Commission also expressed concern over aggressive advertising by EdTech firms promoting such programmes on social media, television, and print media, thereby misleading prospective students. Students and the general public have been urged to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of any academic programme involving foreign institutions. 'They would be doing so at their own risk and consequences,' it added.

Consumer organisation asks Electricity Department to communicate to consumers on refund of excess deposit collected in Coimbatore for new connections
The Coimbatore Consumer Cause has asked the Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation (TNPDCL) to communicate clearly to electricity consumers in Coimbatore region details of the refund of excess deposit amount collected from those who sought new service connections till April last year. K. Kathirmathiyon, secretary of the consumer body, said in a communication to the TNPDCL that the ₹2.5 crore of excess deposit amount collected from 2,717 consumers was adjusted in the current consumption charges of the consumers who had sought new connections and paid excess deposit amount. The deposit amount for single phase connection if the cable is laid underground is ₹7,155 and if it is overhead cable, the charges are ₹2,860. For three phase connection (three KW), the charges for overhead cable is ₹6,135 and for underground cable, it is ₹15,330. The TNPDCL collected the charges for underground cable even in areas where the supply is given through overhead cables. When this issue was raised, the TNPDCL said the excess amount was collected because of a 'system fault' in the headquarters. Based on a complaint filed by the consumer organisation with the Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission on March 14 last year, the Commission said on April 3 that the extra development charges collected by way of wrong applicability of the UG development charges for the overhead service connections should be refunded to the applicants/consumers immediately or treated as advance current consumption charges paid and reported to the Commission. The application software should be corrected accordingly with immediate effect. But, the TNERC order was not followed and hence the Coimbatore Consumer Cause took up the issue again with the TNPDCL. The TNPDCL recently said that it was making adjustments in the current consumption charges. But, this had not been communicated to the consumers properly. They were unaware of the reason for the adjustment and had to approach the respective section office to know the details. While the excess amount should be adjusted for two bill cycles, the remaining amount should be refunded to consumers as the consumers were eligible to claim interest for this amount according to the Supply Code, he said.
