Patna: Talks of setting up Central University of Bihar (CUB) in Gaya instead of Motihari is a conspiracy by the Centre to create discord among the people of the two places, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said on Monday.

Stating that he would stick to his demand for opening of the university at Motihari, the work place of Mahatma Gandhi, Kumar told reporters "It is impossible for us to go back ... We have already sent the proposal for setting up CUB at Motihari to the Centre."

The government was ready to provide land for the varsity at Motihari not in one place but in two others, he added.

alok bajpayee - motihari
such a central claim that motihari is not the appropriate place is misguiding one, i was born in motihari and know the place well, more than ten thousand students cross the boarder of motihari & bettiah every year, the poor parents expend lac per Annam on rent only ... they have been looted by the delhi locals....environment of delhi is not good , motihari & bettiah are better place for study....if central gov thinks that gaya is better place , then they shoud open more than 10 central universities in bihar... b coz we the people bihar do not want to migrate any where...
