88% of Telangana Colleges Operate Without NAAC Accreditation, Raising Quality Concerns! Quality education in Telangana is under scrutiny, as a staggering 88% of colleges in the state operate without a valid National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) grade. Out of 2,083 colleges, only 260 (12%) have received NAAC accreditation. Furthermore, just 35% of the 31 universities in Telangana, including state, private, and deemed universities, are accredited. Osmania University’s NAAC accreditation expired this year, and several other universities, including Telangana University, Satavahana University, Palamuru University, and Telugu University, also lack valid NAAC grades. The English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) has been without a NAAC grade since 2021. NAAC accreditation is a vital indicator of educational quality, influencing campus placements, funding opportunities, and institutional reputation. Institutions with a NAAC grade above B are seen as maintaining quality, which is crucial for securing corporate placements and enhancing student and parent perceptions. Institutions are evaluated on teaching, research, infrastructure, governance, and other factors, with grades ranging from A to D. These grades not only help institutions identify strengths and weaknesses but also assist in attracting grants and companies for campus recruitment drives. The absence of accreditation raises concerns about the standard of education in Telangana's higher education sector.

CBSE Uncovered "Dummy Enrolments" in 29 Schools Across 6 Regions During Surprise Inspections! Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) took decisive action by conducting surprise inspections across 29 schools in Delhi, Bengaluru, Patna, Bilaspur, Varanasi, and Ahmedabad. These unannounced checks, held between December 18 and 19, revealed serious violations, with the majority of schools found to have inflated student enrollments, creating "non-attending" or dummy enrollments beyond their actual attendance. The inspections were aimed at ensuring strict compliance with CBSE’s affiliation guidelines, infrastructure standards, and overall operational integrity. Teams of CBSE officers and school principals carried out these surprise visits to maintain transparency and accountability. The findings highlighted areas for improvement: while some schools did not fully adhere to student enrollment norms and CBSE’s infrastructure requirements, CBSE is taking proactive steps. The board will issue showcause notices to the concerned schools and is exploring solutions, including potential legal action, to ensure future compliance and enhance educational standards. This move highlights CBSE’s commitment to eliminating dummy admissions and promoting integrity within its affiliated schools. Last year, CBSE expanded its oversight by conducting SQAAF inspections in 4500 schools. Is your institution prepared for SQAAF? Streamline the process with Luneblaze.
