Overview
- NAAC’s notice dated November 12 orders Al‑Falah University to remove accreditation claims from its website and respond within seven days, stating the university was never accredited and two listed college accreditations expired in 2016 and 2018.
- The council asked why legal action should not follow and said it may recommend withdrawal of recognitions by bodies including the UGC, NMC, NCTE, AICTE and the Haryana government.
- A joint NIA and Jammu & Kashmir Police team searched the Al‑Falah medical campus, sought institutional records back to 2019, and prepared to question faculty and students as part of the blast investigation.
- Authorities have placed multiple doctors linked to the university under arrest or scrutiny, seized explosives from locations tied to suspects, and found a vehicle on campus registered to a doctor under investigation.
- The National Medical Commission said it is monitoring the case and could cancel medical registrations if guilt is established, while officials indicated the university will not be shut to avoid harming students, and the institution says it is cooperating and denies wrongdoing beyond employment ties.
