is the UGC going to be scrapped in 2021 n replaced by HEI's
Hello Dear Student,
According to New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, Higher Education Commission of India (HECI) will replace UGC from next academic session.
Along with UGC, AICTE and NCTE will also dissolve and they will be merged and replaced with HECI.
HECI will be the new, apex regulator for university and higher education in India. It has to set benchmarks for academic performance, ensure that institutions adhere to these and act against those that violate standards.
HECI will be governed by a commission headed by a chairperson and vice-chairperson selected by a committee which will include the Cabinet Secretary and Higher Education Secretary (HRD).

All the Best
Hello
It will replace UGC once Parliament repeals UGC Act, 1951. ALthough NEP has paved the way for HECI instead of thecurrent UGC AICTE system, no such sytem is expected to come into reality atleast till march of 2021 according to https://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/7674142_Public_Notice-Continuation_of_UGC_Schemes.pdf Nothing can be said with certainty as to when it will actually be implemented as of now.
