PTI reports that Jammu University is to have a CR station soon, a decision taken by the Council of Jammu University last week.
This is rather interesting, because Jammu University was among the earliest applicants for a CR license, way back in 2003-04, if I am not mistaken. Their application was turned down<http://mib.nic.in/writereaddata/html_en_files/crs/Listofrejectedapplications.pdf> then, no reasons given. Maybe they will have better luck this time.
