It will be merged with Annamalai University.
Another Bill to amend the Annamalai University Act 2013 to convert it from a unitary institution into an affiliating type university was introduced.
The Annamalai University is to be converted into affiliating type, by affiliating [arts and science] colleges in Villupuram, Cuddalore, Kallakurichi and Mayiladuthurai districts
The government also tabled a Bill to amend the Bharathidasan University Act.
Consequently, the Bharathidasan University would no longer be the affiliating university for arts and science colleges in Mayiladuthurai.
