Bangalore, Oct. 1 :    Bangalore, Oct. 1:  Karnataka has put on hold the development of a biotech park on the campus of the University of Agricultural Science here. The government's plan to develop the park, which will house multinational biotech companies in a sprawling campus, has stirred a row with students, teaching staff and Opposition parties dissenting the decision. Violence broke out on Thursday in the campus and over a dozen students and several teachers were injured in the police lathicharge that followed. 'The government will wait for the university board meeting's outcome on October 3 and take a decision accordingly,' said officials in the state information technology department, which is promoting the park. IT minister B.K. Chandrashekhar, however, was allegedly kept in the dark on the 'hastening of processes' for setting up the park. He also expressed shock to the chief minister on the way the police handled the situation. Officials in the chief minister's secretariat said a decision on its location would depend on the emergency board meeting called by the vice-chancellor.
