Vaishno Devi College Loses Recognition
Vaishno Devi College has lost its recognition because it didn't meet the required standards in many areas.
The inspection found that there weren't enough teachers and other staff, and important facilities like laboratories and libraries were not up to the mark.
The college said some of the problems were because teachers were on leave during the inspection.
This happened shortly after there was a dispute about admitting Muslim students.
Vaishno Devi College lost recognition due to deficiencies in teaching faculty and other areas.
The inspection found a 39% deficiency in teaching faculty and a 65% shortage of tutors and senior residents.
Outpatient department and bed occupancy rates were below required standards.
Essential facilities like laboratories, lecture theatres, and library resources did not meet regulatory norms.
The college administration attributed some deficiencies to faculty being on leave during the inspection.
