From Inclusion to Exclusion: UGC’s New Equity Rules Institutionalize Caste Lines and Abandon Merit

UGC’s 2026 equity rules aim for inclusion but risk institutionalising caste divisions, sidelining merit, and importing failed DEI models into Indian universities

While we are here discussing the need to better our education system, the GOI is hell bent on destroying whatever is left of it.

This is sickening and very dangerous. The govt institutions already suffers from politics due to student elections sabotaging educational environment. This is going to be the death nail for private campuses now.
UGC has done more harm to education by their moronic rules and regulations, undue interference in curriculum and rampant corruption. Now they have one more tool to stifle the campuses.

As if there are not enough lessons learnt from misuses of such rules in our daily life. These oldies are going to destroy the young generation.

Note key points: The lose language defining "discrimination". No provision to de- incentivise false cases. Lopsided nature of rules incentivising false cases. "Vigil Squads" in campus basically institutionalising Goons based on caste.



And no provision on how to handle cases where both parties come under "protected" category. One more commitee to have Corruption and favor politics on campus.



The drawbacks are very very serious. Reminds me of Jungle raj of Bihar
