Implementing Reforms Introduced by UGC
“In the last couple of years, UGC has introduced several reforms. Today, more than two crore students have registered on the ABC platform but it is not enough as it is important that all the students are registered on the platform and you upload all the credentials and credits certificates of the students on the ABC platform,” Kumar said addressing the vice-chancellors.
