A memorandum was submitted by the delegation for deferment of the decision taken by the Department of High Education, Punjab, to make a common portal of three universities of Punjab for centralised admission in degree colleges affiliated to Panjab University, Chandigarh; Punjabi University, Patiala; and Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar.

“A memorandum was submitted by the delegation for deferment of the decision taken by the Department of High Education, Punjab, to make a common portal of three universities of Punjab for centralised admission in degree colleges affiliated to Panjab University, Chandigarh; Punjabi University, Patiala; and Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar,” said Rajindermohan Singh Chhina, senior vice-president of the association.

“We strongly condemn the decision of online centralised admission by calling it impractical and unrealistic and stated that it will affect all higher education institutions of Punjab, which are already suffering owing to the pandemic,” he added.

The members said owing to the pandemic crisis, more students were getting attracted to universities abroad and the strength of the colleges was decreasing with each passing day.
