The University Grant Commission (UGC) has issued the following set of common guidelines on student disciplinary procedure and imposing punishments to be adopted by each University/HEI.
Student Charter
Fulfilling its mandatory role, the UGC has prepared the University Student Charter to serve as a guide for students enrolled in state universities as well as a document that states the conditions of the contract that exist between the university and its students. It also serves as a guide to the academic, administrative and support staff and the public, as it emphasizes the commitment expected from all stakeholders for the smooth functioning of state universities.
