He called upon scientists in the university to work for increasing productivity and said that stray cattle posed a problem because of owners abandoning them.
Governor Ram Naik welcomed the changing face of the state where schemes worth crores were being launched.
“The universities are now getting funds, so they should work for society. Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya propounded ‘Antyodaya’ to talk about the last man awaiting development. We need to follow his principles,” Naik said.
