Guest guest Posted May 31, 2003 Report Share Posted May 31, 2003 According to a circular of Higher & Technical Education Dept. of Maharashtra Government, the famous Shivaji University of Kolhapur is going to establish ‘Bhagwan Mahavir Jain Chair’. The Education Dept. has granted Rs. 25 Lakhs to Shivaji University for this purpose. This is the result of the demands made by Dakshin Bharat Jain Sabha and the interest shown by ex-Chief Minister Shri. Vilasrao Deshmukh and Chief Minister Shri Sushil Kumar Shinde. Vice Chancellor Mr. Takwale is very much interested in this project. He has appealed the Jain community to take interest in the project. It should be noted that Kolhapur, where Shivaji University is situated, is a major Jain center in India from ancient times.
