The Parliament has passed the National Sports University Bill, 2018 that aims to establish a National Sports University in Manipur as part of a vision to enhance India’s standing in sports.
The Bill was introduced in Lok Sabha by Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore, Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports on July 23, 2018. It replaces the National Sports University Ordinance, 2018 that was promulgated on 31st May 2018.
The National Sports University will be headquartered in Manipur. It may establish outlying campuses within or outside India, colleges, or regional centers.
The University will undertake research on physical education, strengthen sports training programmes, and collaborate internationally in the field of physical education, among others.
The Schedule to the Bill contains statutes. These statutes specify the establishment, composition, and powers of various authorities such as the Chancellor, Vice Chancellor, and Dean of Schools. Any such action will require the approval of the central government.
The central government will review and inspect the functioning of the University. The Executive Council may take action based on the findings of the inspection.
The University will maintain a Fund which will contain contributions by the central government, state governments, or the University Grants Commission; loans, gifts, and donations; income from fees, and amounts received from any other source.
Any student or candidate whose name has been removed from the rolls of the University and who has been barred from appearing for examinations may appeal to the Executive Council for review of the decision.
Any dispute arising out the disciplinary action taken by the University against a student may be referred to a Tribunal of Arbitration (at the request of the student).
