More than two years after students
and faculty members at the Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar (IIT-Gn)
shifted to the campus in Palaj, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will dedicate the
campus to the nation. The PM will visit the campus on Saturday during his
two-day visit to the State. IIT-Gn was set up in 2008 and functioned
temporarily on Vishwakarma Government Engineering College campus in Chandkheda.
In July 2015, it
shifted to the 400-acre Palaj campus which has already hosted three convocations.

officially inaugurate the institute after completion. Not all are dedicated to
the nation. IIT-Gn Director Sudhir Jain, however, said, “The talk of PM
inaugurating the campus has been going on for a long time.
