The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) has issued a show-cause notice to Al-Falah University, reportedly at present under scrutiny in connection with the Delhi Red Fort blast investigation, for allegedly displaying false accreditation information on its official website, officials said on Thursday, reported the PTI.
According to the notice, the NAAC observed that Al-Falah University — “which is neither accredited by nor has applied for accreditation with NAAC” — had publicly claimed on its website that it is “an endeavour of Al-Falah Charitable Trust, which has been running three colleges on the campus, namely Al-Falah School of Engineering and Technology (since 1997, Graded A by NAAC), Brown Hill College of Engineering and Technology (since 2008), and Al-Falah School of Education and Training (since 2006, Graded A by NAAC),” as per the PTI.
