New Delhi: Hindu College of Delhi University has ended Miranda House's seven-year reign at the top of the 'colleges' category in the NIRF rankings. In the ninth edition of the National Institute Ranking Framework (NIRF) rankings, announced by Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Monday, six Delhi University colleges secured spots in the top 10 nationwide.
Delhi University itself saw significant progress, climbing five positions to secure sixth place in the 'university' category. Vice Chancellor Yogesh Singh praised the students, faculty, and staff for their hard work, attributing this achievement to "teamwork" and "dedication." He expressed confidence that the university and its affiliated colleges will reach even greater milestones in the future.
In the NIRF 2024 rankings, Hindu College claimed the top position, with Miranda House and St. Stephen's College following in second and third place, respectively. Atma Ram Sanatan Dharma College secured fifth place, Kirori Mal College ranked ninth, and Lady Shri Ram College for Women rounded out the top 10, further solidifying Delhi University's strong national standing.

It is an indication of the direction we are working towards to improve the learning experience of students. It's our responsibility, in whichever position we stand as a good college of the university or the nation."
