Gujarat University to Independently Manage Convention Centre
Imagine a big building for events, like a convention center, that Gujarat University owns.
For years, a company managed it.
The university got money from them.
But, since the pandemic, the center closed and the university didn't make any money.
Now, the university will manage the center itself.
They are spending money to fix it up.
This way, they hope to earn money again without any problems with other companies.
Gujarat University will independently manage its convention centre.
The university had previously outsourced operations to private agencies.
The convention centre has been shut since the pandemic, resulting in zero income.
A Rs 30 crore renovation project has been approved to revive the facility.
The university aims to avoid past issues with private management.
