Hi Shivam,

Here is some information about UGC and BCI :

The University Grants Commission of India  (UGC India) is a statutory body set up by the Indian Union government in accordance to the UGC Act 1956[1] under Ministry of Human Resource Development, and is charged with coordination, determination and maintenance of standards of higher education. It provides recognition to universities in India, and disburses funds to such recognised universities  and colleges. Its headquarters is in New Delhi, and six regional centres in Pune, Bhopal, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Guwahati and Bangalore.

The Bar Council of India ( BCI) is a statutory body  established under the section 4 of advocates Act 1961 that regulates the legal practice and legal education in India. Its members are elected from amongst the lawyers in India and as such represents the Indian bar. It prescribes standards of professional conduct, etiquettes  and exercises disciplinary jurisdiction over the bar. It also sets standards for legal education  and grants recognition to Universities whose degree in law will serve as a qualification for students to enroll themselves as advocates upon graduation.

Hope this helps you.
