A consortium led by Singapore and including China, India, Japan and other nations will attempt to raise $500 million to build a new university and another $500 million to develop necessary infrastructure.[4]
On May 28, 2007,

The report goes on to say that "The proposed university will be fully residential, like the ancient seat of learning at Nalanda. In the first phase of the project, seven schools with 46 foreign faculty members and over 400 Indian academics would come up." ... "The university will impart courses in science, philosophy and spiritualism along with other subjects. A renowned international scholar will be its chancellor."[6]
On August 15, 2007,
The Times of India reported that Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has accepted the offer to join the revived Nalanda International University sometime in September 2007."[7]

The objective of the university was claimed to be "aimed at advancing the concept of an Asian community...and rediscovering old relationships."[8]

Jan 20, 2011 :
China announces 1 billion dollar aid ??

 

[notsuperstitious]

india taking AID frm china now.........rofl

India cant even develop it own heritage.

Its an international cultural cooperation project to build a historical place one of your heroes destroyed. India has recently built a buddhist stupa outside the historic white horse temple too, thats in China, but all those idiotic things you said do not apply to china now do they? Stop being so servile to your latest master.

White Horse Temple - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Read some history and the background and the cultural exchange between the two civilizations to understand the importance of the university. All your heroes need not be murderers and destroyers and arsonists, and all the source of your knowledge need not be zaid hamid.

BTW the 1 billion amt seems to be incorrectly reported.

I think you should sue the government for giving such a big amount as aid...

A case in public interest in the highest court is a good option.. May it be a lesson for avoiding future aid.

Taxila was more of a place of Hindu/Buddhist religious learning and Nalanda was world's first University. Taxila is older but it was not a university in it's proper sense.

 

[ajtr]

For that you have to understand the special relationship between India and China.......

on a side note.....paise kisko kharab lagte hain.....keep them coming....

paise kyon kharab nahi lagange chahe janwaron ke chaare se hi na bane hon.

 

[aristocrat]

1 Billion is too much.Its either 1 mil or 100 mil.

That same way is being seen here for quite some time .. but the ones who ask are dissappearing for obvious reasons and strangely thats the motive for the "same way" answering too.
