BENGALURU: Higher Education Minister G T Devegowda on Thursday met Governor and Chancellor of state universities Vajubhai Vala and discussed some important bills pending before the latter for assent.
The minister particularly discussed two important bills — the common bill for state universities and a bill relating to Ambedkar School of Economics — which have been pending for the governor’s assent for almost for an year now. After the meeting, Devegowda said, “I have requested the governor to give assent as both are important for state higher education.” “I have briefed the governor in detail about the importance of both the bills. And he said he will discuss with the Advocate General and decide,” said the minister.
