It applies to university administrators, teaching staff, regular and non-collegiate students, as well as all Sanskrit colleges and training institutes affiliated within the state. The legislation outlines the university's corporate powers, governance structures including the Executive and Academic Councils, powers of officers like the Vice-Chancellor, and procedures for granting degrees and managing funds.
