This Act establishes and governs Kadi Sarva Vishwavidyalaya, a self-financed, non-affiliating university headquartered in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Sponsored by the Sarva Vidyalaya Kelavani Mandal trust, it regulates the institution's academic programs, administrative structures, financial management, staff appointments, and student admissions. The legislation applies to university administrators, teaching and non-teaching staff, constituent colleges, and enrolled students across various disciplines including engineering, pharmacy, management, and humanities. By conferring degree-granting authority and academic autonomy, the Act enables the university to operate independently of state financial aid, maintain educational standards, conduct examinations, and facilitate a smooth transition for constituent institutions formerly affiliated with traditional state universities.
