Bare Act
The Mewar University, Chittorgarh Act, 2009
This statute establishes Mewar University in Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, as a self-financed private university sponsored by the Mewar Education Society. It applies to the university's management, faculty, staff, and students across various academic programs, including engineering, medicine, humanities, and vocational studies. The law outlines the administrative framework, powers, governance bodies, fee structure regulation, admission criteria, and academic oversight mechanisms. It also defines the supervisory authority of the Rajasthan state government to ensure academic standards, conduct audits, and intervene or dissolve the institution in cases of mismanagement. This Act matters because it establishes the legal foundation for the institution to confer recognized degrees independently.
