Professor Sahoo, said that he has already received a number of offers from foreign universities to collaborate with F.M. University immediately after his joining, but he could not proceed due to a lack of a proper office for International Relations. The students and faculties are quite excited as they will get better opportunities. Another student said, “This foreign Affairs office should have been set up at least fifteen to twenty years back”.
