A Standing Committee of Parliament has also recommended the inclusion of the government’s Institution of Eminence (IOE) scheme to Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in Delhi. This suggestion was given by the Parliamentary Committee on the grant of the Higher Education Department for the financial year 2025-26 for the financial year 2025-26.
What is Ioe Plan?
The government launched the Institution of Eminence (IOE) scheme in 2017, through which Indian higher educational institutions are included in the global rankings and given them more freedom. Under this scheme, financial assistance of up to ₹ 1,000 crore is also provided to government universities, so that they can improve research capabilities and infrastructure in their universities.

Why does JNU need Ioe tag?
JNU Vice Chancellor Professor Dhulipudi Pandit expressed concern about the financial challenges of the university last year. He had said that “We have been demanding the tag for a long time. If we get this tag, we will get financial assistance of ₹ 1,000 crore, which will reduce the financial crisis of the university to a great extent.”

How many institutions have received Ioe tag so far?
So far, this prestigious tag has been given to only eight public institutions. The Parliamentary Committee not only recommended JNU to be included in this list, but also suggested that colleges should also be given more freedom under the universities that have already received IOE tags. Institutions like Delhi University (DU) are expected to benefit from this. If JNU gets an IOE tag, it will not only get financial help, but the university will also get more freedom in syllabus and administrative decisions.
