Remove words 'Muslim' from AMU, 'Hindu' from BHU: UGC panel
A University Grants Commission's panel has suggested the government to remove word 'Muslim' from Aligarh Muslim University and 'Hindu' from Banaras Hindu University to reflect their secular character. The panel suggested that AMU should either be called 'Aligarh University' or be named after its founder Sir Syed Ahmad Khan and gave a similar recommendation for BHU as well.
