AIU Suspends Al-Falah University's Membership as NAAC Serves Show-Cause in Red Fort Blast Fallout

Regulatory action follows investigators linking university doctors to the Nov. 10 Red Fort car explosion.

Overview

  • NAAC issued a show-cause notice alleging Al-Falah falsely displayed accreditation, directing immediate removal of claims and a response within seven days.
  • The notice outlines possible recommendations to UGC, NMC, NCTE and AICTE for withdrawal of recognitions, as well as potential legal action and state-level measures.
  • The Association of Indian Universities suspended Al-Falah’s membership with immediate effect and ordered the removal of the AIU name and logo from all platforms.
  • Investigations by the NIA, Delhi Police and J&K Police continue with campus visits, vehicle seizures and a suspicious car found at the Faridabad site under probe.
  • NMC officials signalled potential cancellation of medical registrations for any doctors proven guilty, while the university denies wrongdoing and says it is cooperating; the blast has claimed 13 lives and injured more than 25.
