It basically says that the counseling date of July 11th is not final but most likely. Its not final because the BPUT VC is out of town. The final date will be announced when he gets back on June 22nd. The counseling will start with the lateral entry students.

The Hindu reported the following.
The Central University, Tiruvarur, will begin functioning from this year.
Since the Centre has come forward to commence the operations of the university, the government will identify temporary buildings to locate the university.
………..it was decided that expeditious action would be taken to identify and allot land to the Central University in Coimbatore and the Indian Institute of Management in Tiruchi.
NOTE: Orissa Govt. has not yet taken any initiative for the proposed second central university in the state. It seems Orissa Govt. is far behind regarding the second central university in the state compared to other states.

From http://niser.iopb.res.in/careers/ the NISER pay is:
Assistant Professor 12,000-375-16,500 Reader (F) 14,300-400-18,300 Associate Professor 16,400-450-20,000 Professor 18,400-500-22,400
.. In addition to the basic salary, NISER faculty is entitled to allowances as admissible to Central Government Employees stationed at Bhubaneswar and to the DAE’s update allowance, which is currently Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 30,000 per year depending on the scale of pay. They will also receive other fringe benefits (like Relocation Grant, Reimbursement of telephone charges, financial support to attend national/international Conferences/Seminars/Workshops, etc.) which will be comparable to the best in the country.
From http://www.iiserkol.ac.in/career.html the IISER pay is:
1. Professor : Scale of pay : Rs 18,400 – 500 – 22,400
2. Associate Professor : Scale of pay : Rs 16,400 – 450 – 20,000
3. Assistant Professor : Scale of pay : Rs 12,000 – 420 – 18,300
including allowances as admissible to Central Government Employees in Kolkata.… In addition to pay and allowances the faculty members may be provided with the following:
Reimbursement of telephone charges up to Rs 750 per month.
Rs 4000 per year as book grant.
Reimbursement of 75% of membership fee (restricted to Rs.5,000.00) of two international and two national professional bodies every year.
Financial support to attend national/international Conferences/Seminars/Workshops, etc.
Seed money for starting research laboratory.
I wonder if IISERs have something comparable to the DAE update allowance that NISER will pay. Otherwise that could be a selling point for NISER over the IISERs. Perhaps a knowledgeable reader can enlighten us on this aspect.

Following is an excerpt from a news report in The Statesman.
The proposed medical college and hospital at Rourkela is expected to be set up soon as a team of hi-tech group of institutions, led by its chairman Mr Tirupati Panigrahi paid a visit to the site recently. It is said that the visit was intended for site selection and discussion with the district administration about the ancillary formalities. The group is believed to set up a 300-bed medical college and hospital here.
They visited the Rourkela government hospital (RGH) campus, sector-13 and sector-9.
The team also called on collector Dr K Kumar and discussed with him various aspects of the venture.
Reliable sources said the group, in the first phase, would build the hospital and within six months, would upgrade the same as a medical college.
Thoufh the CM had laid the foundation stone earlier, yet the inordinate delay and changed political scenario had made people believe that the medical college may not see the light of day. But the visit of the team is described as a ray of hope.
The Western Orissa Development Council (WODC) will partly finance the project in the initial stages, sources said. …
