IIT professors to visit ODF premises next week

Filed under:

SANGAREDDY: The Ordnance Factory (ODF) premises are being readied for conducting the prestigious IIT classes, from next academic year. Officials have been making arrangements for organising IIT classes temporarily in the building from August, 2008.

The IIT special team which had inspected several other buildings along with the factory quarters finally decided to go ahead with the classes in the ODF and directed District Collector Piyush Kumar to complete the arrangements.

Accordingly, steps are being taken for providing facilities to the students.

Two IIT professors from the Centre will visit the district next week to supervise and make necessary suggestions for the arrangements. Both of them will camp in the district for two days (Monday and Tuesday).

Speaking about the issue, the district collector said repairs will be done to the classrooms basing on the suggestions by the IIT professors. The works will be completed by the end of June, he said.

Touching upon land acquisition for the IIT campus in Kandi village, he said that notification had already been issued for acquiring 80 acres of private patta lands. All the lands, along with the patta ones, were assigned by the government, he said but hastened to add that none of the asignees were cultivating the land at present.

When asked about the issue of compensation and the agitation by farmers, the district Collector said they were discussing it and promised to do justice to the victims.
