It is an excellent step. But the managements of the private university lack broadminded outlook and try to earn more and more money in the short period, without giving other universities a tough competition. I suggest the management to:
open a centre or university in amritsar because here the seats of MBA nd B.Tech are limited and the students go to Delhi or UP. I assure that if a university is set up here, no one will like to take admission at GNDU, Amrtisar, and shall find a way out with private university which always have better infrastructure and centralised management.
Secondly, make fee structure affordable to attract more students during initial stages. It is the name and fame that will ultimately go in favour of progress.
