Manav Bharti University is a private university located in the village Laddo near Kumarhatti in Solan district in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.

Degree controversy

In 2021, the Times of India reported that Manav Bharti had sold many fake degrees over few years to people who did not actually study at the university.[2] In Singapore, two holders of these diplomas were jailed for submitting false qualifications in their work pass applications, while 19 more were permanently banned from the country.[3]
