Chief Minister agrees to the three demands of UCE Burla students
October 16th, 2007
Following is extracted from a Pioneer report. The three demands, as reported, were:
- Issuance of the clearance for the Society Registration Act. (The clearance of Society Registration Act is needed to accorded deemed university status to the Burla Engineering College.)
- Deputation of a team of officials with the chief architect to plan the contemporary infrastructure which the UCE needs and allocation of funds for their construction.
- Allotment of 300 acres of adjacent free land to UCE by the district administration which is needed for its expansion and upgradation, before it was encroached.
Congratulations to the UCE Burla students! (Tathya.in has some details on the cause of the delay.)

I still think going via direct State University would have gained better mileage. UCE is the oldest Engineering college and a Science and Technology University – unlike holding BPUT would have been more appropriate. Instead of a Bill taking it out from BPUT, GOO could have passed a Bill in the assembly to make it a separate Science and Engineering University. That would have been a higher status than at present.
