This means DU will have a four year undergraduate programme from the academic session 2022-23.
The Academic Council had earlier passed the agenda on August 24 with 16 of the 26 elected members dissenting against the decision. They also alleged there was no discussion and they were asked to just submit the dissent notes.
In their dissent note, the trio said the NEP was “a blue print for privatization and commercialization of education” and that its implementation in DU would lead to the “destruction of leading public funded university of India”.
