USA.
Dear Prof. Baral,
I am delighted to know that establishment of a World Class University named Vedant University has been proposed by Anil Agarwal Foundation at Konark- Puri marine drive with active support of Govt. of Orissa. Being an Oriya I feel very proud for the proposal. As I understand Rs. 15,000 crores will be spent over the years for setting up the Vedant University, however, the quality of the Faculty which makes any University proud off are very scarce in this country. Therefor every care should be taken for recruiting knowledgeable Faculties and bright students to make vision of the founders for a true World class University. I shall highly appreciate to know more about the proposed University.
With regards,
Yours sincerely,
