Is it not a shame for all the people of the state? Should the people involved not apologize for their mistakes?

But still I feel the media and the government as well as some other social institutions would have taken up the task of marketing the project and its importance among the people of the region. Let the people understand Nalanda International University will not be business enterprise of Birlas, Tatas, or Ambanis for profit. It will make the whole area as famous as the most reputed temple of the world. Will they not contribute their land for that temple that will spread the ancient knowledge of India and the region all over the world again? Are they not proud that dignitaries such as Abdul Kalam and Amartya Sen beside many more learned people from many countries are leading the project of their area?

Let the people be told about the proposed university and its purpose. Let them know that it is neither going to be an SEZ nor car factory. It will be an education center of international importance with its schools of philosophy and Buddhist studies, informatic, basic and applied sciences, development studies, natural resources management, international studies and language studies that will incubate the best minds and souls of the world. "The proposed university will try to "recapture" the holistic traditions of knowledge creation, acquisition and dissemination as practiced in Nalanda University centuries ago — in a more modern context."

It will also materially benefit the people living around, as it was the case when Nalanda was at its prime. After all, an infrastructure of services will be necessary for supporting a 21^st Century University with 10,000 students and 1,000 or more teachers coming from all parts of the world. It will upgrade the educational and cultural level of the population of the regions all around and create sufficient number of employment too.
