Welcoming the members of newly constituted Academic Council including external ones, Prof Mehraj ud Din Mir gave a brief account about the university establishment and its functioning. He said that 5000 kanals of land stands transferred to the University for establishment of the permanent campus. “However, the construction on the permanent structures were hit as the land turned out to be marshy with low load bearing capacity,” he said, adding that MHRD also deputed a soil expert who after thorough analysis, approved the construction of G+1 structures.
Prof. Mehraj ud Din said the university has faculty from across the country who are actively participating in national and international seminars, conferences and other academic activities from time to time, adding that several faculty members have also received research projects.
