Description

A State Private University is established through a State/Central Act by a sponsoring body
viz., a society registered under the Societies Registration Act 1860, or any other
corresponding law for the time being in force in a State or a Public Trust or a Company

education is largely inaccessible and unaffordable to a substantial chunk of youngsters, the
possibilities that open up before a private university is enormous. While at the same time, it is
supposed to provide quality education and beat the competitors, resource constraints and

Constraints, and Disadvantages of Private Universities for its stakeholders like students,
faculty members, parents, industries and society are also discussed. The opportunities and
