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.
