KATHMANDU, JUNE 13

The Tribhuvan University (TU) has sought applications from those campuses wishing to opt for a merger.

The TU today issued a notice inviting applications from campuses affiliated to it or running as its constituent colleges that are interested in merging. Applications are needed to be submitted to TU Office of Planning Directorate by coming mid-July.

As the notice states, campuses interested in merging are first required to take a decision on merging either through the Campus Assembly or the respective management committee.

According to the notice, applications are sought separately from campuses agreeing for a merger and the documents should include a clear explanation of the reasons and relevance behind the proposed merger.
