University Grants Commission, UGC has turned down the Delhi University's proposal of a three – year honours course which was sent to the UGC to end the stalemate over the admission issue.

The stand-off between Delhi University and University Grants Commission continues for the fifth day today over the Four-Year Undergraduate Programme, FYUP. There is no official confirmation about when the university is going to begin the admission process.

Earlier, the UGC had issued a fresh ultimatum to the University asking it to begin the admission process under the 3-year course from yesterday. However, instead of sending a compliance report to the UGC for rolling back FYUP, DU offered the alternative proposal to the commission, as a way to end the deadlock.
