Also, St John University in Kerala has been working for as long as 15 years in Kishannattamk, a place that does not exist. 
 
"We have no clue about this. What's more, no one has enlisted any consistent," said a training service official. The UGC had sent updates about this college. 
 
Of the two sham establishments on option drug in West Bengal, one is running with an alternate name and the other is working. 
 
The Indian Institute of Alternative Medicine has evidently transformed into the Indian Board for Alternative Medicine after its name was said on the UGC's 2009 rundown. The state government has tried for its conclusion. 
 
"We got a notice from the UGC a year ago, however before we could answer our name was on the rundown," said Jayanto Bhattarcharji, author of the Institute of Alternate Medicine and Research, which is on the rundown.
