AGARTALA, July 21 (TIWN): When there is no scope for employment in the state, state government is busy in promoting about quality education. What is the future of these students who will not get a chance to employee themselves.

Talking to TIWN correspondent, Education Minister Tapan  Chakraborty said that State university will be inaugurated in its stipulated time.

Admission notice is already being circulated for admission into the courses like MA program in English, M.Sc in Applied Mathematics and one year program in Library and Information science.

However, the admission forms are already submitted for the academic session 2016-17.

Tripura government is all set to begin with the new state university from August to provide quality education to the people and nil employment in returns.

t is to be mentioned here that opening of state university is nothing but a source for production of bunch of CPI-M cadres. As there is employment in the state it is definite that the students after passing out from the university will get engaged with the party’s SFI, DYFI or section and will do promotion of the political party in exchange of few money.

State university will one day turn into a house of CPI-M cadres as students will be seen with flags rather than books.

Initially, the Varsity would start with five city based Colleges including MBB College. A proposal seeking bifurcation of five city based degree colleges has already been sent to the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD). The state varsity is scheduled to start its maiden journey from upcoming academic session. Currently, two Varsities- ICFAI and Tripura University are functioning in the state.

The left front government in Tripura has decided to set up a ‘state university’ to improve the scope of higher education. A State University is to be established at the Maharaja Bir Bikram (MBB) College in State Tripura, aimed at broadening the higher education prospects as informed by official sources.

It is expected that from year 2016 the new state university’s academic session would commence. MBB is one the oldest college of state Tripura and due to the extensive campus it is chosen as a site to setup the University at MBB College.

The government has chosen to start the State University in the Maharaja Bir Bikram College campus, renaming the college as Maharaja Bir Bikram University as a sign of respect to the history and tradition of the institute.
