Vinoba Bhave University Vice-Chancellor Dr Gurdeep Singh and Pro-Vice Chancellor Dr Manoranjan Prasad Sinha said in a joint statement on Tuesday that it was their motto to make the university academically vibrant. Seminars will be organized on different topics and subjects every month in order to realize the target, they said.
"On the 5th of June i.e. on the World Environment Day, we are going to step ahead towards our motto by organizing a seminar on the topic given by the UNO, 'Raise Your Voice, Not the Sea level'," they said.
Both the VC and Pro-VC informed that it will be a one-day seminar and some committees have been constituted for arrangements and other necessary actions. Dr PK Mishra of the department of botany and Dr Abhay Kumar Sinha of the department of geography have been named as convener and co-convener, respectively.
Dr Mishra and Sinha said that RCCF Pradeep Kumar will be the chief speaker of the seminar.
VC Dr. Gurdeep Singh, who is a noted environmentalist, will deliver the keynote address and the entire programme will go on in the supervision of PVC Dr. MP Sinha who is also known as an expert of the field.
later, talking to newsmen, PVC Dr. MP Sinha said that it has been brought to his notice that more than 5 dozen files of PhD students are pending since last six months or more and eligibility exam for PhD registration has not been taken since last 3 years because new rules and regulations have not been framed and approved "By July end I will solve these two major problems," Sinha hoped.
