Aurangabad, June 5:

The team, which will have an experienced engineer, architect, one professor and three assistant professors, will inspect building, classroom, library, laboratory, toilets, research initiatives, recruitment of principal and teachers, admitted students in f a college.
Each institute will be allotted a grade on the basis of the inspection report. Those colleges that will get grade-A will be given affiliated for three years while others will have to fulfil the required conditions. Many non-aided colleges may not affiliation as they do not have the required facilities, approved staff. According to sources, Bamu will complete the scrutiny of the report by June end.
