| KU commissions its South campus in Anantnag | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
SRINAGAR, Oct 14: Kashmir University vice-chancellor, Prof Reyaz Punjabi, today commissioned the first phase of the Varsity's south campus in Anantnag by launching three postgraduate courses there viz Masters in Business Administration, Mathematics and English.
Speaking on the occasion, Prof Punjabi said that it was great to see that the campus has finally been commissioned. "I am sure that this campus will one day transform into a full-fledged university," he told a gathering of students and senior officials of the university. "When I visited here sometime back, the campus had only skeleton. But at the back of my mind, I would only think when we can put some blood and flesh into it to make it, at least, functional," Prof Punjabi said.
He promised the students that the campus would be provided with all the requisite facilities including an internet lab, rich library, canteen and a proper hostel facility in near future. "I promise to provide students with guest faculty from premier educational institutions in India like JNU and Delhi University," Prof Punjabi said. "The faculty would be visiting the campus occasionally to update students on the latest developments in their fields of study."
Prof Punjabi hoped that by the next academic session, courses in science and technology would be launched in the campus, which is spread over a land area of 350 Kanals at Fatehgarh Islamabad.
The KU registrar, Prof S Fayyaz Ahmad, assured that sufficient infrastructure would be put in place in the campus for use of students. "Our aim is to transform this campus in a full-fledged university which will offer all the traditional and new courses in future," he added.
The Director South Campus, Prof Altaf Ahmad said that "It is because of the personal efforts of the VC that we have been able to make this campus functional". |
