Centre aims to bring all Arch schools under one roof
New Delhi, Oct 29 (IBNS): The Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday gave its approval to introduce the School of Planning and Architecture Bill, 2014 in the Parliament to bring all three Schools of Planning and Architecture(SPAs) within the ambit of the School of Planning and Architecture Bill, 2014.
The Bill would adhere to Government policies on reservations from time to time. The proposed Act will empower these Schools to award degrees through an Act of Parliament.
This would enable the School of Planning and Architecture to become centre of excellence like IITs, NITs and help fulfill the need of the country for quality manpower in the field of architecture and planning.
All the money spent from public exchequer will be accounted for and audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India. Annual Report and Audited Accounts of each SPA will be placed before Parliament.
