PU launches anti-encroachment drive

Patna,(BiharTimes): Patna University Vice Chancellor Shambhu Nath Singh sought the help of district administration and police to get encroachment removed from the campus of Patna College on Monday.

The district administration brought down several old structures built illegally by some former employees. Only on January 20, 2012 the Bihar Legislative Council is to hold its special session in the Seminar Hall of the College.

The encroachers put up some resistance but had to fimally leave.

It needs to be recalled that the University had served notices to 65 people living in an unauthorized manner on the campus. They had been asked to vacate and demolish the illegal constructions.

Most of them were Class IV staff. Besides, there were some outsiders too.

Most of the University officials including Students’ Welfare Dean, Development Officer and University engineer accompanied by the Pirbahore police and magistrates reached the College along with a bulldozer and tractors and demolished these constructions.

All the unauthorized constructions around Darbhanga House, PU Guest House, Iqbal Hostel, Nadvi Hostel, Minto and Jackson hostels are to be demolished. About 30 to 35 illegal constructions in and around Darbhanga House complex are to be demolished.

According to reports PU is also contemplating to shift the department of Ancient Indian History and Archaeology from its present location in front portion of Patna College to somewhere else to enhance its look. The Vanijya Mahavidyalaya, presently located inside Patna College, is also to be shifted to Saidpur Complex.
