This is important information for all the students who got their Engineering Degree from distance learning program from the above mentioned 4 universities. The government decided to suspend such degrees. But the court has given relief to the candidates who took admission between 2001 and 2005 to revive their degree by undergoing a test conducted by AICTE. If they get successful in that test, then their degrees will be revived. But for the students who took admission after 2005, there will be no such test as they were aware of the fact that their degree would not be valid.
