The centre was inaugurated by President Waheed Hassan Manik in the university’s auditorium.
During the ceremony, Waheed announced a plan to introduce a Presidential Postgraduate Research Fellowship, however due to the lack of funds, only one fellowship is currently being established, reports local media.
