VERDICT
No answer from either authority — and no such thing as a UGC-approved course
The UGC records that neither the university nor the Arunachal Pradesh higher education department responded, and states that it does not approve courses. Professional, technical and medical programmes are approved by their own statutory councils.
Scope: Based only on UGC RTI reply F.No.1-1151/2024(RIA/(CPP-I/PU), April 2024. The reply names no university and makes no finding that any degree, course or institution is invalid.
