He said since last 17 years, no new government college has been opened and pointed out that the gram sabha land came under the Delhi government.

Varma said that villages of Ghumanhera, Dwarka and Najafgarh have a lot of land which the Delhi govenrment should give to build new colleges to develop a West Campus of the university.

He noted that Delhi University already has North and South campuses. He said the AAP government had promised to build colleges, but it has not taken off at all so far.
