MYSURU:
Call it a New Year gift to Mysuru- based Karnataka State Open University (KSOU), the state government has declared it as the sole university of the state to offer Open Distance learning (ODl) education.
The state cabinet which passed an ordinance in this regard recently, has issued a gazette notification on the same.
Speaking to mediapersons here on Friday, KSOU vice-chancellor Prof Vidyashankar said this would boost the prospects of KSOU as it now becomes the only varsity in the state to run distance learning courses, which is likely to double their admissions in the coming days.
