Taneja, Vice-Chancellor at the Examination Hall today. He visited various stalls and showed keen interest in the latest edition books on the various subjects.

Organization of book exhibition is a regular feature since the inception of the university. This is the third book exhibition organized by the university.  The university also encourages faculty members to develop their personal library by purchasing books under a special subsidy scheme.

The book exhibition is open for all and especially for those interested in seeking updated literature available in the market on small animals. This exhibition will generate good interest among students and staff members of the university to read books available on latest topics.
