BNY ji, i am also not in favor of nepotism and i never chose this path for myadmissions/ scholarships or careers. How do i know Manish or Surendra, as i dont have any affiliation with KU? just wondering if they are they bad choces for KU?? Can anyone shed some light on the status of KU whether it is a private or public univ. What is the proportion of operating budget from government. I heard Dr AK is a nobal man. i think he has been working in establishing a medical college at patan hospital. his departure from KU is a big loss.
