💨 Abstract

The Biju Janata Dal (BJD) opposes the draft UGC Regulations, 2025, specifically the proposed provisions for the appointment of vice-chancellors and academic staff. In a letter to the UGC chairman, the BJD expressed concerns over the regulations' anti-federal nature, claiming they grant absolute power to state governors and central government to appoint academic staff in universities without state government participation.
