Panjab University (PU) has put up a notice on its official website to clarify that it’s a Central and government funded university differentiating it from Chandigarh University (CU).

The alert states, “No official of Panjab University or admission cell is calling any prospective candidate for seeking admission to the PU or for submitting admission fee etc.” PU officials said they were getting queries from students, who believed that both the CU and the PU were similar. “We have been getting regular queries regarding the same. The update has been made to clarify doubt of students seeking admission to PU,” said Prof RK Singla, DUI.

Reportedly, on August 17, Dr Parveen Goyal of the UIET had also written to the VC to issue an alert on PU’s official website regarding admissions. In 2018, the varsity had constituted a nine-member panel to look into the confusion among students between PU and CU.

“On every platform, we have clearly mentioned that we are a private university and are located in Mohali,” said one of the CU spokespersons. — TNS
