An ombudsman is an official, usually appointed by the university but with a significant degree of independence, who is charged with representing the interests of the public by investigating and addressing complaints of maladministration or violation of rights.
Whether appointed by the legislature, the executive, or an organisation, the typical duties of an ombudsman are to investigate complaints and attempt to resolve them, usually through recommendations (binding or not) or mediation. Ombudsmen sometimes also aim to identify systemic issues leading to poor service or breaches of student's rights.
Making a complaint to an ombudsman is usually free of charge. For colleges affiliated to RTU, ombudsman office is located at Rajasthan Technical University, Kota.
