I think this would be biggest initiative apart from current industrial developments taking place. If you build a institution who can build further intellectual capital then it can be better than several industries. Bihar needs it badly. I urge Nithish ji to please make this university a top priority. There is no doubt that this initiative would take Nalanda and Bihar miles away from others under the guidance of Kalam Saab. Wish you all the luck!

I salute Dr.Kalam for his brain child and also the Chief Minister Shri Nitish Kumar for his drive and initiative for its immediate implementation. Aruna Prasad(from USA)
