Last November, the Basavaraj S Bommai government had declared its intention to establish a university in every district. However, the Siddaramaiah Government believes that this decision, made last November, lacks rationale and was driven by self-interest. This implies that the universities proposed for Chamarajanagar, Kodagu, Hassan, Koppal, Bidar, Haveri, Bagalkot, and Mandya may not come to fruition.
