This 'A' grade awarded by NAAC is proof that the university is not only a leader in preserving traditional education but is also embracing a modern, quality-oriented education system.

The NAAC peer team conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the university's academic programs, research activities, student welfare schemes, administrative processes, digital innovations, and social responsibility initiatives. The evaluation specifically commended the university's role in preservation, its sound administrative system, the quality of its research work, and its dedication to promoting the Sanskrit language.
