Monad University

In 2025, Monad University came under investigation following allegations of involvement in a large-scale fake degree and marksheet racket. The Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force (STF) conducted raids at the university’s campus in Hapur, during which thousands of allegedly forged degrees, marksheets, and other academic documents were seized.^[2]

Following the raids, the district administration recommended cancellation of the university’s recognition and submitted details of the investigation to the state’s Higher Education Department. The STF arrested multiple individuals, including the university’s chairman and senior officials, alleging that counterfeit academic certificates were being produced and sold for monetary consideration. According to police, the racket had been operational for several years, with fees allegedly ranging from ₹50,000 to ₹4 lakh per degree.^[3]

In a related development, the university management alleged that a technical institute in Sant Kabir Nagar district was issuing forged degrees and marksheets in Monad University’s name. A police report was filed on court directions against several individuals associated with the institute. These allegations emerged while Monad University itself was facing scrutiny in the fake degree case, in which several accused, including the owner, were later released on bail pending investigation.^[4]

Investigations by the police and the STF were reported to be ongoing, while the state government also initiated its own inquiry into the matter.^[5]
