CHANDIGARH: The two Punjabs may get together again, at least for a student fest at the Panjab University (PU) as per its recent initiative to invite Punjab University Lahore for the Jhankaar Student festival in March this year.

A committee formed by the vice-chancellor (V-C) has cleared this proposal and is awaiting final nod from the V-C.

The initiative was taken by Panjab University Campus Students Council (PUCSC) president Anurag Dalal for the Jhankaar 2025 fest. "This will be the first time that the two Panjab (and Punjab) Universities can unite for a college fest and there is a warm feeling between students of the two.

We hope to send out the invite soon and will plan the involvement of the Pakistan PU's students once we receive a confirmation from them."

The V-C had constituted a committee to look into this and prepare a final invite. While the committee has cleared the proposal and the DSW has strongly recommended it, V-C Renu Vig said she is yet to get the final recommendations from the committee.
