Certificate Course in Chinese for Indian Army introduced at Visva Bharati University
Certificate course in Chinese
The Visva Bharati University has recently introduced a certificate course in Chinese language for Indian Army personnel.
The course is being conducted by the university’s Cheena Bhavan and 25 Indian Army soldiers have already enrolled in the programme. The course aims to introduce the soldiers to the Chinese culture and inform them about the old ties between India and China.
The eligibility criteria of the course for the soldiers is same as general students. The classes are being held at an Army establishment.
Visva Bharati VC Swapan Kumar Dutta was quoted as saying by PTI that the course should be viewed as a part of the continuous cultural exchange process set in motion eight decades ago. Cheena Bhavan, established in 1937 has been creating awareness about Chinese culture in India.
In February this year, an MoU was signed between Visva Bharati University and the Army's Eastern Command for academic exchange programmes and cooperation in the said field.
"While our students are being recognised internationally for their command over the language, in China students of the institute who are part of the exchange programme with Cheena Bhavan organise Bengali cultural events at their campus and sing 'Rabindra Sangeet', “Dutta elaborated on Cheena Bhavan's other initiatives.
