Madhya Pradesh Cabinet Splits RGPV into Three Universities, Drops 'Rajiv Gandhi' Name
The Madhya Pradesh Cabinet approved splitting Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV) into three separate technical universities, removing 'Rajiv Gandhi' from the name. The new universities will be located in Bhopal, Ujjain, and Jabalpur, each serving different regional divisions to promote technical and skill education. Congress leader Jitu Patwari criticized the BJP government’s decision as politically motivated, warning of consequences, while government officials emphasized the administrative and educational benefits of the restructuring.
