STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The Central Universities Act, 2009 was enacted to establish and incorporate universities for teaching and research in various States and to provide for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto . The Act provided, inter alia , for establishment of a Central University in the State of Bihar by the name of Central University of Bihar .
2.The Central University of Bihar is functioning from a temporary location at Birla Institute of Technology Campus , Patna . The Government of Bihar had identified three sites in Motihari , for permanent location of the Central University of Bihar, whichwere not found suitable by the Site Selection Committee . Keeping this in view, the Central Government explored the possibility of acquiring a portion of an unused airfield at Panchanpur at Gaya .
3.Meanwhile , Resolutions have been passed by both the Houses of the State Legislature of Bihar requesting the Central Government to establish the Central University at Motihari . Several Members of Parliament have also raised the issue for establishing more than one Central University in the State of Bihar to speed- up the all- round development of the State .
4. In view of the pressing demand for establishment of one more Central University in the State of Bihar and to minimise regional imbalances in higher education, it is proposed to establish one more Central University in the State of Bihar. Accordingly, the Central Universities (Amendment) Bill , 2012 , provides-
(a) for establishment of one more Central University in the State of Bihar by the name of Central University of North Bihar to be located at Motihari in the State of Bihar ; and
(b) for renaming the existing Central University in the State of Bihar as the Central University of South Bihar to be located at Gaya in the State of Bihar.
5. The Bill seeks to achieve the above objectives .
