"New Role, New challenge for you !"
What happened to centralized CET plan???.Pushed to backseat??Many rural students will benefit if implemented.
Kindly carry forward the initiatives of Arvind Limabavali like Sahayoga and focus on infrastructure facilities(no use of new colleges since seats are vacant.),adequate & quality teaching staff,the much hyped implementation of sixth pay commission(which was announced long time ago then put in the backseat..People may loose trust!),promoting more colleges to autonomous status,encouraging professions other than engineering and medicine like design etc. as professed by your predecessor.
