Yes, even though there is a List of universities in India, the universities will be listed in state-wise lists for easier accessibility to readers.


 * Are the colleges listed on these lists?

No, the college-listings are to be university-wise for easy access and maintenance. These lists will only include wikilinks to those lists.


 * Are the colleges listed according to the courses they offer?

No, but the university-wise college lists may contain information regarding the fields the colleges offer.


 * What institutes are to be listed in the autonomous section?


 * 1) All institutes that are not listed by the UGC as universities, but as autonomous institutes
 * 2) Institutes which are autonomous under different ministries/departments of the Government of India
