R P Tiwari Committee

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has set up a seven-member committee on December 23, headed by Vice-Chancellor of Central University of Punjab R P Tiwari, to consider the issue of holding common entrance test at undergraduate level only from the next academic year.
It is the first attempt, after the introduction of the new National Education Policy, at moving away from unrealistic cut-off marks for admissions to universities.
