The University of Engineering and Technology Roorkee Act, 2020

Education202047 sections

This Act provides the statutory framework for establishing and operating the University of Engineering and Technology Roorkee, a private, self-financed institution in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, sponsored by the Seth Roshan Lal Jain Trust. It applies to the university’s administrators, faculty, staff, students, and governing bodies. The law defines the university’s powers to conduct academic programs, confer degrees, and manage its affairs without relying on state financial aid. It matters because it ensures adherence to national higher education standards, mandates state oversight, guarantees seat reservations and fee rebates for Uttarakhand permanent residents, and protects students by prohibiting unauthorized franchising arrangements.
