NEW DELHI:

At the meeting, DU vice chancellor also directed principals and directors of all colleges to settle all promotion cases by February 28 next year, an issue raised by several members.

In other important decisions, the key panel also approved the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 in postgraduate programmes, PhD supervisions by college teachers, and reservation of one seat in each postgraduate programme for single girl child.

DU already reserves one seat per course for single girl child at the undergraduate level since academic year 2023-24.

"Now the university will also introduce the policy in the PG level," said a DU official.

Following the approval of the implementation of NEP at PG level, the official added, "The draft of PG Curriculum Framework 2024 (PGCF 2024), based on NEP 2020, was also approved after thorough discussion."
