Vijay Kumar Sinha, Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister and Agriculture Minister, announced a major success: the Agricultural University, Sabour, has received an ‘A’ grade from the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). This is not just a win for the university but for the entire state, confirming Bihar’s strong standing in higher education, research, and innovation. The achievement is the result of the university’s unwavering resolve, hard work, and the collective efforts of its community. The NAAC peer team assessed all facets of the university, from academics and administration to infrastructure, research, and outreach. The university’s attainment of a 3.08 CGPA in a short span of 15 years demonstrates its impressive national presence. This recognition validates the university’s commitment to academic quality, inclusive development, research progress, and administrative transparency. The grading also reflects alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The curriculum has been redesigned to be multidisciplinary, skill-focused, and innovation-led. Students benefit from opportunities for interdisciplinary studies, research participation, and credit transfers, supporting the NEP’s objectives of flexibility and student-centered learning. The university’s robust feedback system is also a key feature.
