  5. Issues with NHEQF: • Confusion due to multiple guidelines: NHEQF, National Credit Framework, Academic Bank of Credits. • Ambiguity in eligibility and entry pathways. • Lack of consensus, especially for disciplines like agriculture, law, medicine. • Potential elitism in Ph.D. admission. • Equating postgraduate diplomas with undergrad programs. • Influence of international models without considering India's diversity.
