Inaugurating the new-age centre last evening, Minister of Health and Health Education Surendra Singh Negi said that this was "a big leap in the direction of quality education for students studying in remote areas of the state."
USAC director Dr B Kimothi said the students can benefit from special lectures by experts and the centre's interactive technology will be useful in solving any queries.
