The Radha Govind University Act, 2018
The Radha Govind University Act, 2018
This legislation establishes Radha Govind University as a private, non-affiliating university in Ramgarh, Jharkhand. It outlines the governance structure, administrative roles, academic authorities, and financial management of the university. The law applies to the university's management, staff, faculty, and enrolled students, setting standards for faculty qualifications, admissions based on merit, and seat reservations for local residents and economically backward students. It matters because it creates a legal framework for expanding quality higher education in Jharkhand, ensuring proper state oversight, academic accountability, fee regulation, and protection of students' educational completion even if the university undergoes financial or operational dissolution.
