RGPV To Be Replaced By 3 Universities In MP; ‘Rajiv Gandhi’ Name Dropped

Madhya Pradesh's Cabinet has decided to replace the Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV) with three separate universities, named after different regions - Madhya Bharat Proudyogiki Evam Kaushal Vishwavidyalaya in Bhopal, Malwa Proudyogiki Evam Kaushal Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya in Ujjain, and Mahakaushal Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya in Jabalpur.

This shift aims to promote regional balance in technical education. The Bhopal-based university will encompass Bhopal, Narmadapuram, Chambal, and Gwalior divisions, while Ujjain will cover Ujjain and Indore areas, and Jabalpur will include Jabalpur, Rewa, Sagar, and Shahdol regions. The creation of these new universities necessitates the appointment of specific administrative roles, filled via outsourcing for non-essential positions.

Additionally, a Madhya Pradesh Technology University Empowered Committee has been established to expedite the formation of these institutions. Led by the Chief Secretary, the committee comprises secretaries from various key departments and involves crucial stakeholders.
