Muslim University (AMU) Sunday started classes from its
Murshidabad campus in West Bengal with the first set of students
for two-year MBA and five-year law programmes.
"From today (Sunday) classes for the two-year MBA programme and
the five-year B.A.(LLB) programmes have started," said P.K. Abdul
Aziz, the AMU vice chancellor.
"Right now the classes are going on in a rented two-storied
building as the campus is not yet ready," said Aziz.

for the Murshidabad campus in the union budget for 2011-12.

last year laid the foundation stone of the campus. Mukherjee is
