Prof. Saroj Sharma thanked the state government to allocate a land to build the new centre. She said that the new centre will help to expand the open education model to secondary and senior secondary level in line with the National Education Policy.
She further said that the new centre would help to impart education to the marginalised sections of the society including migrant labourers, women, specially-abled people, unemployed, people in the reserved categories and other minority communities.
