K. K. University (KKU) is a state private university[1] located in Beraunti, near Bihar Sharif in Nalanda district, Bihar, India. The university was established in 2017 by Samajik Kalyan Sanstha under the Bihar Private Universities Act, 2013,[2] one of the two first private universities in Bihar.
Both universities were approved by the Bihar Government in May 2017[3] following the passing of Private Universities (Amendment) Bill, 2017 in March 2017 which relaxed the rules for establishment of private universities in Bihar.[4]
The 2017 law allowed a new private university to operate from a premises measuring 5,000 m² (down from 10,000 m² previously) for four years (up from two years previously) before shifting to the place designated in the project report.[4]
