The Ranchi University (RU) at the Senate meeting conducted on Tuesday cleared the proposal of Rs592 crore for the fiscal year, 2017-18.
During the meet and in a major attempt to reduce the expenditure of examination, registration and certification, the decision made to recruit the private agency for the three major tasks seeking the staff crunch has been cancelled by the university officials. In a unanimous decision, the university cancelled the outsourcing proposal also considering the financial condition of the deprived students.
Similarly, the members of the Senate has been assured that soon the university officials will start working on providing permanent land to the colleges like Ramlakhan Singh Yadav, Yogada Satsang including SS Memorial college. Notably, all these colleges do not have any permanent campuses and are running on leased land.
Meanwhile, RU Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Ramesh Kumar Pandey after hearing the plea of Tribal Department Head, TN Sahu on the recruitment issue of 51 teachers that has been lingering since long has said that the varsity has prepared a blueprint of the recruitment procedure and soon all the pending recruitments will be complete.
The university will also rethink over the cost incurred upon the students studying vocational courses that is presently being charged by the university in the name of self financing courses.
