Rani Lakshmi Bai Central Agricultural University (RLBCAU) is situated in the historical city of Jhansi (Uttar Pradesh). As academic and research spaces universities have to contribute significantly in the evolution of a nation and its people. We have to transform RLBCAU in a knowledge hub for education, research and extension in agriculture and allied sciences so that University can function as an Institution of National Importance in real sense ensuring holistic development of Indian agriculture.

Capacity building through national and international linkages to ensure quality higher education, research and extension through innovations in agriculture and allied sciences is need of the hour. To ensure holistic development, security and to have bargaining power any country need self-sufficiency in food. The recruitment of quality faculty and ancillary staff in transparent manner ensures quality teaching, research and extension education. Priority has to be given to inculcate habit of punctuality, discipline and eagerness to learn among stakeholders.
