Mysuru: “CPWD (Central Public Works Department), being the premier construction agency of Government of India, needs to extend and diversify its outstanding services and expertise to the field of Academics as well by initiating its own Engineering Academy similar to the Medical Colleges and Hospitals, and especially ESIC (Employees State Insurance Corporation) organisation,” said CIIL (Central Institute of Indian Languages) Director Dr. D.G. Rao.
He was speaking at the 165th CPWD Day celebrations, organised at the CPWD Complex premises, Nirman Bhavan, in Siddarthanagar recently and said ESIC utilises their existing ESI Hospitals for the purpose of internship as House Surgeons after the final year.
CPWD, being the authority with extremely experienced engineers, should have own Engineering Colleges all over India and utilise their outstanding experiences and expertise in the construction field by introducing one year course of practical supervision of construction of buildings to fresh Engineering Graduates soon after the completion of Engineering course.
