Andhra Pradesh to have one university in each district: Orissa should have one in each of its undivided districts
June 22nd, 2008
Various news reports mention that Andhra Pradesh will be having 6 six new universities so that each of its districts have a university. They have budgeted 16 crores for that.
Orissa should follow this lead and have one university in each of its undivided districts. The undivided 13 districts of Orissa were: Puri, Cuttack, Sundargarh, Baleswar, Sambalpur, Bolangir, Kalahandi, Koraput, Phulbani, Dhenkanal, Kendujhar, Ganjam and Mayurbhanj. Among those the six districts Bolangir, Kalahandi, Koraput, Phulbani, Dhenkanal and Kendujhar do not have a university. The Orissa government should take advantage of the central government’s offer and set up a university in each of these districts.

Yes, It is a absolute necessity to establish universities (state or central whatever it may be) at less developed areas. To have well spread out Higher Education Centres, Orissa Govt should take steps to set up varsities at Phulbani, Koraput/Rayagada, Bolangir and Kalahandi.

I would rather have a few but very good ones than a bunch of nondescript ones. We definitely need more universities in Orissa; but I do not think one university per district is a sustainable idea. Quality over quantity, any day.
