Gujarat Technical University will have four more zonal sub-centres. After Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Vidyanagar, Surat and Rajkot, the Gujarat Technological University (GTU) has decided to make four more zonal sub-centres for administrative convenience. The new centres will be created in Kutch, Bhuj, Amreli and Navsari.
The GTU officials said that over three lakh students study in technical colleges affiliated with the GTU. GTU registrar Gitesh Joshi said, "They will help in better administration. Each centre will have a deputy registrar, a controller of examination and a director of academics."
Joshi said that the zonal sub centers will enable the students of those areas to pay the fee as well as allow colleges to carry out financial transactions closer home without coming to the GTU head office. More centers will also administratively ease the process of exams and paper assessment.
The officials said that the GTU has also decided to have more zonal centers especially during the exams.
