Pradhan urges Majhi to establish four Agriculture-related institutes in Sambalpur

Bhubaneswar, June 19 (UNI Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has urged Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi to establish four agriculture-related colleges in Sambalpur, a region with immense potential in agriculture and allied sectors.
In a letter to the Chief Minister, Pradhan noted that despite Sambalpur’s inherent agricultural diversity and potential, the region has not achieved the desired sectoral growth.
He proposed the establishment of a College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, College of Dairy Technology, College of Fisheries, and College of Agri-Business Management. These institutions, he said, would place the region on a long-term, inclusive, and knowledge-driven development path.
