The college powers should shut down its seven worldwide off-grounds focuses at Sharjah, Doha, Bahrain, Dubai, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi and Oman and the national focuses in Gujarat, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Karnataka and the Union Territory of New Delhi before July 23 according to the UGC order.
