Utkal University to shut down second campus in Jajpur!

May 25, 2022

Due to the restrictions imposed on self-financing courses, the authorities of Utkal University have reportedly decided to close the second campus of the varsity in Jajpur.

There has been no official announcement regarding the development but there is unlikely to be any new admission to the second campus of the varsity at Chandikhole in the Jajpur district from the coming academic year. It has been decided to stop the new admission of students at the rural campus as only 20 percent of total students of the university are allowed for the self-financing courses according to the revised guidelines by the State Higher Education department. However, the courses will continue as usual for old students.

Earlier a day before, hundreds of B.Sc nursing students had staged a demonstration on Utkal University campus in Bhubaneswar over lack of basic facilities at the second campus of the varsity at Chandikhole in Jajpur district.

The students blocked the road by shutting the main gate and later sat on a dharna in front of the vice-chancellor’s office. They alleged that they are being deprived of clinical education even after three years of taking admissions.

The B.Sc nursing course at the second campus in Chandikhole is being managed by Shrusrutam Charitable Trust. However, students have been demanding that Utkal University authorities should take over the management of the course.

10 Years in positive journalism, and counting…..

One decade of carrying positive journalism is no less than providing a service to the nation. As a result, the fear of losing the respect of the readers is what prevents us not to be stopping to any publications related to those inspiring personalities on a regulative basis in order to attain inspiration. We believe that we have espoused the cause of positive and developmental journalism with utmost honesty and rigor. Unfazed by the competing media platforms who are obsessed with the TRP game and have no qualms in compromising time honored media ethics, we can safely claim we are out of this mad race for recognition. Rather, we chose the path less trodden. And, that has positioned The Interview Times where you find it today. We chose to play up the stories of those personalities who climbed the success ladder by the dint of their grit and gumption. These were the stories which escaped the wide lens of the big media. That is the narrative which you and I find relatable. And, we count on your support and patronage to keep this tradition running.

Once again, I would like to state that the entire family of Interview Times Media Network is firmly committed to positive journalism in pursuit of making a better society in the days to come. Journalism is a passion for us, not a profession. Let’s celebrate.

In this traumatic pandemic, a thank you note is incomplete without saluting the departed as well as those who lost their loved ones while pursuing journalism selflessly. Hope better days are in the offing with light and rays.

It is therefore asked all of your’s noble donations to sustain the importance of pursuing positive journalism round the year.Lets value it sacredly.
