Does KL University currently hold NAAC 'A++' accreditation?

KLEF was re-accredited 'A++' by NAAC in its 2018 second cycle and this grade is still widely displayed.

Prospective students should verify the university's current, active NAAC status directly on naac.gov.in before relying on the 'A++' badge as current.
