A request has
been submitted by a Parliamentary Standing Committee to the Ministry of
Textiles to take up the issue of due recognition to the NIFT degree which is
lying pending for a long time.

The committee has expressed concerns because there have been several
communications from the ministry requesting UGC to recognize NIFT degrees at
the appropriate levels in the interest of students. It is said that the degrees
that are not mentioned under section of the UGC Act, 1956 are considered
invalid.

According to a report, a request has been initiated to the ministry
to make efforts to expand the student support and scholarship scheme so that
more students are benefitted and adequate generation of funds can be explored.
The institute is offering various student support and scholarships such as
Sarthak NIFT Financial Assistance Scheme, Merit-Based Scholarships, and Udaan –
NIFT Scholarship Scheme for Foreign Students.

Another suggestion given by the committee is that the institute
should expand the courses and offer more programmes according to the global
standards.
