Hi,

The KSOU offers courses for all categories of people and not just for students but also for working professionals who wish to upgrade their skills or acquire new ones. What are its objectives? The objective of establishing a state-level open university is to provide opportunities to the citizens at large through higher education and training in various fields which shall be free from any form of discrimination on grounds such as caste, creed, religion, gender or social status.
BEd course is a program which helps students to complete their education in a short period of time. It is designed for those who have completed the basic education and want to get into higher level of education. BEd course offers an opportunity to students to acquire knowledge and skills that are required for them in order to become successful professionals.

Hello Laxmi

Thanks
Hello candidate,
The University from where you have done your B.Com (//B.Com) has been declared invalid, but you have to get proper analysis of the ruling.
Thus, you reach out to some lawyers and discuss about the effect of this ruling, whether it applies retrospectively i.e, the degrees which have been already given will they stand nullified or is it just that after being declared as invalid the University cannot give out degrees.
