Anna univ faculty members write to guv, oppose name-change move
Chennai:30.09.2020
Faculty members of Anna University on Monday wrote to governor Banwarilal Purohit opposing the proposal to change the name of the university and asked him to advise the government to bring suitable amendments to the bill to retain the name.
A bill was passed in the assembly last week to bifurcate Anna University and it was proposed to name the new affiliating university as Anna University. The parent university, consisting of College of Engineering, Guindy (CEG), Madras Institute of Technology (MIT), Chromepet, Alagappa College of Technology (AC Tech), Guindy, and School of Architecture and Planning (SAP), will be renamed as Anna Technological and Research University (ATRU).
“For 42 years, CEG, MIT, AC Tech and SAP have gained fame as Anna University, and all their credentials are in the name of Anna University,” the letter from Anna University Teachers Association said. TNN
