New Delhi, March 12 Both Houses of Parliament have listed the schedule of business for Wednesday with Union Home Minister to present a Bill -- for establishing “ Tribhuvan” Sahkari University -- in the Lok Sabha, and the Rajya Sabha to discuss the working of the Ministry of Railways.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah will move the Bill to establish the Institute of Rural Management Anand as a University to be known as the “Tribhuvan” Sahkari University and to declare the same as an institution of national importance.

The university will impart technical and management education and training in the cooperative sector, promote cooperative research and development and attain standards of global excellence therein to realise the vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi” and strengthen the cooperative movement in the country through a network of institutions.

Union Sarbananda Sonowal will move that the Bill to provide for the responsibilities, liabilities, rights and immunities attached to carriers with respect to the carriage of goods by sea and for matters connected therewith or related thereto be taken into consideration.
