Among the best known is Ferguson College, but there are other, and between those who have a great brand is the symbiosis between the group of universities and institutions. The beginnings of youth nearly 30 years, they are now as a place among the top 10 training centres in the country.

Today, SIMC (Institute of Mass Communication) and the Centre for Education and management are brand names known.

They have a fine guest house is located on the 11 Floor of the main building, has a large statue of RK Laxman’s famous “Common Man” at the entrance.

I had the chance to interact with students of mass communication (journalism) course earlier this week and talked with them not only a question of journalistic coverage and missions, but also on North - East and the problems and issues. In fact, Rituparna Bhuiyan, a young student Dibrugarh (his father was one of Assam’s most famous playwright), had helped organize the visit, he told an overwhelming interest in the region.

The questions were many and a fielding it tries as well as we could.

Dream highways The road from Pune to Mumbai was a dream: a six-lane highway that zipped past the Western Ghats, shot by tunnels, long and small, with our Indica barrelling along on 100-120 km per hour without a hiccup. I did not make this trip on this highway ago - it is four years and very well maintained and marked with a divider roads in some regions, planted for red bougainvillaea kilometer after kilometer.

We did it in Pune, in the heart of Mumbai, in less than three hours flat. The highway ends well before that we in India, the commercial capital and lasts 100 minutes just to cover, which once had four or five hours.

The state cabinet on Wednesday formally approved the proposal to give Dhirubhai Ambani Institute for Information and Communication Technology (DAIICT) the status of university.

They would now be entitled to get graduate and post-graduate degrees though earlier they got a mere diploma.

A senior minister told TNN that a proposal to give the Nirma Institute of Technology the status of a deemed university was discussed in the Cabinet but no decision could be taken.

As for the DAIICT, the file for deeming the institute as university is with the legal department, said Jadeja. “It will soon be cleared and an Ordinance issued by the Governor to avoid any delay in the matter”. The issue of providing it university status was pending with the state government since August 2001 when it began functioning.

Set up at a cost of Rs 75 crore on 1.25 lakh m plot near here, Jadeja compared it with the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad.

It will be free to decide its own fees for students and pay-scales for teachers”.
