NAAC Issues Show-Cause Notice to Al Falah University, Says It Lacks Accreditation

The regulator warns it could seek withdrawal of recognition by UGC plus key professional councils.

Overview

  • NAAC states the Faridabad-based university is neither accredited nor has it applied for Cycle-1 Assessment and Accreditation.
  • The notice cites allegedly false website claims that associated institutions were "Graded A by NAAC," which NAAC calls misleading to students and parents.
  • NAAC asks why it should not recommend UGC withdrawal of recognition under Sections 2(f) and 12B and advise NMC, NCTE, and AICTE to pull programme approvals.
  • The university has been told to remove the disputed accreditation claims from all public materials and respond within seven days.
  • The regulatory action follows an ongoing Delhi blast investigation that linked planning to a specific room on the campus and led to arrests of university-linked doctors, with forensic teams reporting chemical residue findings.
