Mangalore | Thursday | 19th July, 2018

Summary:

more-inOne may not believe that the College of Fisheries, Mangaluru, the first fisheries college in the country, did not get any additional infrastructure during its five decades of existence. Shetty, the Mangaluru college has been a model for the 25 other such colleges across the country, said college dean M.N. Besides the new infrastructure facilities, all existing buildings, including college building, hostel, the lone seminar hall, auditorium, underground drainage system and water tanks, need repairs, the dean said. While the existing fish farms need to be repaired, there is a need for new ones too, he added. The fact came to be revealed when the college authorities sought government assistance to improve the existing building infrastructure and provide more facilities when the college is celebrating its golden jubilee year..
