The Madhya Cabinet approved the establishment of a campus of the Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU), Gandhinagar, in Bhopal. A grant of Rs 1.05 crore per year for three years will be provided. Ten acres of land within the Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV) campus will be allocated for the permanent campus.
Until the permanent building is ready, existing facilities at RGPV will be temporarily used. This will enhance employment, skill development, and prestige in the field of national security and foster collaborations with institutions at the state and national levels.
Approval for Mess Services in Departmental Hostels
The Cabinet also approved mess operations for students residing in hostels under the Department of Backward Class Welfare. There are 108 hostels accommodating 9,050 students. A total of Rs. 31 crore (Rs. 14 crore non-recurring, Rs. 17 crore recurring) has been approved.
