New Delhi: The Centre has approached the Supreme court recommending derecognition of 44 deemed universities across the country.


The decision to move the apex court follows a government study on 126 deemed universities across the country.


While 38 deemed universities were found to doing a good job, 44 others have been given three years to improve.

The remaining 44 were found completely unfit.

The list includes the Devraj Urs University in Karnataka, DY Patil University in Maharashtra, the Manav Rachna Institute in Gurgaon and the Savita Institute and Vinayaka Mission in Tamil Nadu.


Union Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal has already got a legal opinion from the Solicitor General Gopal Subramaniam on the deemed university issue.


Lawyer Viplav Sharma had filed public interest litigation in 2006 in the Supreme Court seeking regulation of deemed universities in the country.
