NAAC has flagged that Al-Falah University's website mentions 'A' ratings by NAAC for Al-Falah School of Engineering and Technology and Al-Falah School of Education and Training.

The notice states that the engineering college was graded 'A' in 2013 and this grade was valid till 2018. The Department of Teacher Education was graded 'A' in 2011 and this was valid till 2016.

"Both of the above colleges' accreditation status has expired. Both of the above Colleges have not yet volunteered for the Cycle-2 Assessment and Accreditation (A&A) process of NAAC," the notice reads.

The notice has asked the university management to explain why NAAC should not initiate action against the institution.
