NIA Widens Al-Falah Probe as NAAC Issues Show-Cause Over False Accreditation

The case has entered a new phase focused on Al-Falah’s hiring and funding trails under NIA scrutiny.

Overview

  • Investigators have asked Al-Falah University for employment, payroll and hostel records from 2019 onward and are questioning faculty and students.
  • Forensic teams seized diaries and notebooks for analysis as the NIA examines bank transfers, salary disbursements and potential funding channels linked to the suspects.
  • Authorities say Building 17, Room 13 on the Faridabad campus functioned as a coordination point for the alleged module and have sealed the room after recovering devices.
  • Police report recovering roughly 2,900–3,000 kg of explosive and inflammable material from rented rooms tied to a doctor associated with the university.
  • NAAC confirmed the university is not accredited, ordered removal of misleading claims within seven days, and flagged possible action via UGC, NMC, NCTE, AICTE and the Haryana government.
