2 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA EXTRAORDINARY [PART II—SEC.2]STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
Sub-section (2) of section 5 of the Delhi University Act, 1922 (8 of 1922), a central legislation (enacted by the Indian Legislature) prohibits the affiliation of any educational institution or college with any University other than the Delhi University within the limits of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, unless it is specifically permitted by an order of the Central Government. The Delhi University already has a large number of institutions and colleges affiliated with it and may not be in a position to take on the continuous additional burden of new institutions and colleges as well as increasing student popula- tion.
2. In order to facilitate the affiliation of institutions and colleges located in the National Capital Territory of Delhi with the Indraprastha Vishwavidyalaya, an amendment is required in sub-section (2) of section 5 of the Delhi University Act, 1922.
3. The Bill seeks to achieve the aforesaid object.
