Higher education is a key driver of socio-economic development, innovation, and human capital formation. India’s higher education sector has expanded rapidly in recent decades, improving access but simultaneously intensifying administrative, governance, financial, and quality-related challenges. Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan, has emerged as an important educational hub, hosting a diverse range of public and private higher education institutions (HEIs). This study examines the administrative challenges faced by HEIs in Jaipur, evaluates the city’s emergence as an educational destination, and analyses the impact of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 on higher education administration. Using a descriptive and analytical approach, the study identifies governance challenges, financial constraints, faculty shortages, regulatory complexities, and limited technological integration as major barriers to effective administration. The study further highlights the opportunities created by NEP 2020 while acknowledging the challenges associated with its implementation. The findings aim to contribute to policy reforms and provide strategic recommendations for improving administrative efficiency and institutional performance in Jaipur’s higher education sector.
