The Assembly on Friday cleared much awaited Bill for setting up Defense University in the State. HRD Minister Neera Yadav informing about it said that session would be started here from this year itself.
Chief Minister Raghubar Das, lauding the initiative, said that the varsity would pave way for rural unskilled youths to get training of security staffs and even for cyber crime. “Security agencies have been exploiting youths which would be stopped now. After the diploma holders start coming, no one from outside would be allowed under the CISF,” said the CM.
He also announced that four MlAs would be named in the governing body of the University besides, a retired army man. Jharkhand has become third State after Gujarat and Rajasthan to set up special university for defense and security needs.
This apart, the Assembly also passed amendment Bills for court fee and tourist spot protection and conservation. Now, two different duties for processing cases in courts have been removed with a single court fee.
