Central University of Haryana Mahendergarh

The Central University of Haryana, established in 2009 in the same wave that created a central university for nearly every state without one, sits at Jant-Pali in Mahendergarh district — deep in rural southern Haryana, a deliberate choice to bring a centrally funded institution to an underserved belt. For students the central-university package is the point: nominal fees, faculty recruited on national standards, admission through the common university entrance test, and a fully residential campus since the location offers little off-campus life. It holds an A grade from NAAC. The arts and social sciences form a substantial part of the teaching, alongside sciences and professional programmes. It suits students, especially from Haryana and Rajasthan, who want an affordable central-university degree and a quiet residential campus, and who will not miss city amenities.
