The Fusion University Sikkim Act, 2025, provides the legal framework for establishing and operating a private, self-financed university in Chumbung, Soreng District. It mandates that the university be sponsored by the Help Someone Foundation, Delhi. The Act outlines the governance structure, including the Governing Body and Academic Council, and sets strict operational requirements, such as mandatory infrastructure development, merit-based admissions, and specific reservation quotas for Sikkim residents. It ensures academic quality through regulatory compliance and NAAC accreditation, while prohibiting state financial aid. The Act also establishes procedures for financial management, student welfare, and potential dissolution or de-recognition by the State Government.
