New Delhi, Aug 6 (ANI): Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni on Friday said the country will get four new Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC) from the next academic year.
“The new institutes will come up in Kerala, Jammu and Kashmir, Vidarbha in Maharashtra and Mizoram,” said Soni at the annual convocation ceremony of the IIMC here.
The Government has acquired 15 acres of land for each on the campuses and the initial funding would be done by the state governments.
