The Sri Dev Suman Uttarakhand (SDSU) University has given final touches to preparations to ensure transparency in affiliation to colleges. The university has created a web portal for affiliation to colleges in the 2020-21 academic session. After a trial, the web portal will be formally launched. The university officials state that facilitating online process for colleges seeking affiliation with the university will prevent any anomalies and ensure transparency.
It should be mentioned here that 114 private colleges and 53 Government colleges are affiliated to the SDSU University. Till now, the college representatives had to make visits to the university office for affiliation. In some cases the private colleges used to allegedly indulge in anomalies due to lack of transparency. The university vice chancellor PP Dhyani had decided to put in place an online application process for affiliation. The university’s web portal is now ready and preparations are now underway to conduct a trial of this portal.
This portal will facilitate online affiliation for all colleges in the coming academic session. In addition to securing the affiliation online, the college will be able to grant admissions to students only after written permission from the university.
The university vice chancellor PP Dhyani said that the web portal is now ready in order to ensure transparency in the process. A trial of the portal will be conducted and any gaps found will be redressed.
