Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur Thursday said the hill-state was "fast emerging" as an education hub. Announcing the construction of two new buildings at the Government Degree College campus in Una, Thakur said the government will think about developing the institution as a regional centre.
