Engineering colleges and other technical institutions have been warned of disciplinary action if they are found “sharing faculty” with other institutes under the same parent organization or outside, the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE), the HRD Ministry’s technical education regulator, said.

The AICTE has issued a warning to all approved institutions, saying the practice not only hampers the quality of education but is also a breach of the conditions of approval.
