It is a good news.The other Pvt institutions should follow the initiative taken by centurian group.(JITM). Instead of opening engg colleges nearby BBSR they in different names they should look towards western, eastern and central odisha. They should also think about to offer new courses like biotech, nanotech, basic science, humanities. Also postgraduate programme shoud be there.

This is a pathbreaking legislation that aims to build a University in one of the backward Districts of South Orissa. This also will help demolish the myth that private Universities won’t like to set up shops in underdeveloped districts. With this University , south Orissa will have a far advanced higher education structure with Berhampur University at Berhampur, Central University at Koraput and Centurian University in Gajapati. The state govt. should also act on its promise for a Tribal University at Phulbani in Kandhamal which is long overdue. Intellectuals and student bodies must prevail upon the state government to remind the centre about the need and justification for Tribal University at Kandhamal or else it will slip out of orissa. The Centurain University Bill is laudable.
