The Supreme Court on Thursday ordered that the University Grants Commission (Promotion of Equity in Higher Education Institutions) Regulations, 2026, be kept in abeyance.
The Court expressed certain reservations about the Regulations, which are being challenged as discriminatory towards "general classes".
The Court suggested that the Regulations must be revisited by a committee comprising eminent jurists. The Regulations are prima facie "vague" and are "capable of misuse", the Court observed during the hearing.
A bench comprising CJI Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi was hearing three writ petitions which challenge the constitutionality of the 2026 Regulations. These have been filed by - Mritunjay Tiwari, Advocate Vineet Jindal and Rahul Dewan.
The Court issued notice to the Union and the University Grants Commission on the petitions, returnable on March 19. Till then, the 2026 Regulations are kept in abeyance. The Court further ordered that the 2012 UGC Regulations will operate in the meantime.
