Synopsis: The government has proposed new hostels, academic clusters, research labs, walking and cycle tracks, and upgraded water and sanitation systems. Heritage structures, including the iconic Arts College, will be conserved, while old non-heritage buildings may be replaced with modern constructions to meet safety and academic needs.
