All you college students better start studying. It’s not going to be so easy to get Mumbai University fake degrees anymore as they are introducing several changes on the certificates to prevent circulation of bogus degrees.
The university yesterday awarded the graduate and postgraduate students the revamped degree certificates.
University officials collectively took the decision to change the certificate.
According to university sources, during the verification process they realised that too many fake certificates were in circulation.
To prevent this kind of misuse, the university has added several security features.

I have seen my father’s graduation certificate. It is made of poor quality paper and tied with a red ribbon. At that time it looked very different. But I have not seen the 2004 certificates how it was so I cannot compare it. But I like this year’s certificate

I have seen my brother’s certificate. It was grey in colour. I think the 2004 certificate looks better than the 2005 certificate.
