Main building, library and hostel to be constructed in the first phase
Addressing presspersons here on Sunday in the wake of the university completing one year of its establishment, he said in the first phase, it had been proposed to construct the main building of the university, library and hostel, among other facilities. He said that renowned architects had prepared the blueprint for the university campus. A memorandum of understanding had been signed to entrust the construction work to the Karnataka Police Housing Corporation, which had built several “green buildings” in the State, he said. Mr. Patil said that the KSLU, which was at present utilising the services of temporary staff members, was in need of 200 faculty members and 300 non-teaching staff.
“In the first phase, we have requested for appointment of 30 teachers and 150 non-teaching staff. The Law Minister has cleared the proposal and it is now before the Finance Department,” he said.
He said the KSLU team was working towards making the university a world-class institution. “We have launched the website of the university and have plans to bring all the affiliated law colleges under a network so that any student of KSLU can access the proposed e-library. As the Law Ministry was working towards providing e-library facility in taluk centres, we have requested the e-governance officials to include the affiliated law colleges under the scheme,” Mr. Patil said. He said that the KSLU had introduced fool-proof biometric system for conducting examinations.
Mr. Patil said that a local inquiry committee would be sent to the affiliated colleges that were not up to the required standards to assess infrastructure and quality of education provided there. “First, we will warn the managements and give them three years’ time to improve the standards. And, if they fail to initiate corrective measures, cancelling affiliation will be the only option,” he said.
