NEW DELHI, Sept 3 - Parliament has recently passed a bill to include Nagaland under the jurisdiction of Imphal Central Agriculture University (CAU) to help the Northeastern State achieve higher growth in animal husbandry sector.

Singh while moving the bill for consideration said Nagaland has been devoid of the advantages of agriculture and allied education for the last two decades and the law will help in promoting the sector in the State. � PTI
