Vikramashila was one of the two most important centres of learning in ancient India, along with Nalanda. Vikramashila was one of the largest Buddhist universities and was not a capital city, mainly because people wanted to establish a capital in these cities.
Nalanda and Vikramshila were the two most important centres of learning in India during the Pala Empire. In 1193, an army led by the Turkic leader Bakhtiyar Khilji, the general of Sultan Qutubuddin Aibak, destroyed these two cities. After Nalanda University, it is now the turn of Vikramshila University. But its construction will start soon. The land has already been selected and the work will begin as soon as the application is approved by the government. The government plans to make this university as glorious as the old university.
Bihar was once a major hub of education. There were major universities here. Students not only from the country but also from abroad came here to study. But the two major universities here, Nalanda and Vikramshila Universities, have been reduced to rubble. There was a lot of knowledge here buried with it. Now, the government is working to restore the glory of the city. The historic Nalanda University in Bihar has been built and completed. Now Vikramshila University will be ready soon.
District Magistrate Naval Chaudhary said that the construction of Vikramshila University is almost complete. The land has also been marked. Some people live there and orders have been given to remove them. Once the land is cleared, work will start there immediately. The construction of the university will bring back the glory of Bihar. Vikramshila University was once one of the famous universities of ancient times. With its construction, the name of Bihar will be back on the world map.
Naval Chaudhary said that a new university building will be built very close to the stupa of Vikramshila University. Children coming from outside will also be able to see the old stupa. They will know about it. The superstructure will be ready. The university building will be completed to a large extent. Children from abroad will again be able to come here to study. A bachelor’s degree will start here. At present, there are many such courses for which students have to go abroad. Now students will get all the facilities here.
