Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar has taken decisive action by halting admissions to postgraduate courses in over 100 affiliated colleges following the discovery of various deficiencies and irregularities, according to an official announcement on Friday.
This suspension impacts institutions across four districts, including colleges run by trusts linked to key political figures from both ruling and opposition parties, such as BJP leaders Chandrakant Patil, Pankaja Munde, and NCP's Supriya Sule.
