Khallikote University

Khallikote University was established in 2015 as the first cluster university in Odisha. This was achieved by excluding five colleges from the jurisdiction of Berhampur University (BU) and granting them autonomy, also allowing them to share infrastructure and faculty. The five colleges were Khallikote College, Sashi Bhusan Rath Government Women's College, Government Science, Chhatrapur College, Binayak Acharya College and Gopalpur College.^[1][2] In 2020, the university was changed to a unitary university, i.e., a university with no affiliated colleges, and the five colleges were re-affiliated to BU.^[3] In 2021, the university itself was merged with BU and ceased operation.^[4][5]
