<span style="color: #222222;">UGC has requested Higher Educational Institutions to take appropriate measures for implementation of the UGC guidelines on the Optimal Utilization of Resources by Higher Educational Institutions. <br />''<br />''It said higher educational institutions should adopt measures to share their infrastructure with other HEIs for optimum use of the available resources by charging a nominal amount. This additional revenue will help the host institutions to maintain their resources in a better way, apart from making these state-of-the-art resources available to the needy ones. All HEIs have been asked to allow their resources, like libraries, laboratories, and equipment to be shared during free time by students and researchers of other HEIs. </span><br />
