Mysore : State Minister for Higher Education RV Deshpande has said that  there were plans to introduce air service from Goa to Mysore via Bangalore in order to boost tourism.

Addressing a press meet in the town, the minister said he would write to the Union Civil Aviation Minister in this regard. He said the state government was very much interested in boosting tourism in Mysore which is attracting tourists from all over the world.

He said the BJP governments decision to recognize private universities will be reviewed and only eligible institutions will be recognized.

When Deshpandes attention was drawn towards the resentment over appointment of Prof. KS Rangappa as Mysore University Vice Chancellor, the minister said the appointment was made by the Governor and the government will not intervene. He said the government  will think of framing new rules and guidelines for appointment of vice chancellors only if necessary in the days to come.
