Patiala, June 26

Roads at the university have both in the residential as well as in the academic areas been in dilapidated condition for years altogether.

Officials said, “We have started renovating 11 lifts. This includes lifts at the University College of Engineering, boys’ and girls’ hostels, Bhai Kahn Singh Nabha library and the examination branch.”
