THE Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan Bill, 2025, which seeks to replace the UGC, AICTE and NCTE with an apex umbrella body, is expected to be introduced in the ongoing Winter Session of Parliament this week.

- PREETHA NAIR @ New Delhi

The bill, accessed by this newspaper, proposes the creation of the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan (commission), which will have three councils to streamline governance and oversight in India's higher education sector.

The legislation, earlier known as the Higher Education Commission of India (HECI) Bill, is aligned with recommendations of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, and the Union Cabinet approved the Bill on Friday.
