University Autonomy a Fundamental Right, Says Suryabanshi Suraj on Odisha University Amendment Act 2024

Bhubaneswar: In a recent statement to media, Suryabanshi Suraj emphasized the importance of university autonomy, calling it a "fundamental right" for academic institutions. His remarks came in response to the Odisha University Amendment Act 2024, which has sparked discussions on higher education reforms in the state. 
University Autonomy a Fundamental Right, Says Suryabanshi Suraj on Odisha University Amendment Act 2024


Suraj highlighted that autonomy allows universities to make independent decisions regarding curriculum, administration, and innovation, fostering academic excellence. He argued that excessive government interference could hinder progress and limit the institutions' ability to adapt to global educational standards. 
The Odisha University Amendment Act 2024 has been a topic of debate, with supporters claiming it will improve governance, while critics fear it may undermine institutional freedom. Suraj urged policymakers to strike a balance between regulation and autonomy to ensure universities can thrive while maintaining accountability. 
The Odisha University Amendment Bill has been passed in the Assembly and has received the Honorable Governor's assent. A high-level discussion forum was held today at Utkal University to ensure the successful implementation of this Act, aimed at improving the higher education system in Odisha. 
Minister Suryabanshi Suraj held discussions with Professor Uma Kanjilal, Vice-Chancellor of Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), and other officials at the Secretariat office on various topics. They discussed the introduction of Odia-medium courses by IGNOU in the state. Additionally, discussions were held on the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the launch of skill development-related courses, and the expansion and promotion of sand art. 
The discussion continues as stakeholders assess the long-term impact of the amendment on Odisha's higher education landscape.
