Direction: Read the following passage and answer the question.

Education is an important component in Man's life. Without Education, it is not possible to progress at all. Education develops the knowledge, behaviour, simplicity and other manners. Many stalwarts like Swami Vivekananda also recognised the significance of Education. Having such importance, education today has become more of commercial nature than cultural ones. Taking into consideration of the demand that the Education especially the Higher Education has, the University Grants Commission permitted a number of private Universities to be operated in the country. The private Universities being commercial in nature ignored the significance of education and started exploiting the students in parts of the country. A number of committees have made recommendations. Among the various committees Prof. Yashpal Committee came out with a good number of suggestions. This has led the UGC to close the Universities in Raipur in the state of Chattisgargh. Basing on the recommendation of the Yashpal committee, the present HRD Minister Kapil Sibal has taken action and identified around 44 private Universities to be de-recognised. This shows to the extent the education is commercial. In order to uplift the education in the country, the government wants to set a new agency by replacing the existing higher education bodies and set up a New National Higher Education Council, perhaps this may bring the desired results. The country is at present facing the crises in the education system.

According to the passage, which type of universities started exploiting students?
