CGC University, Mohali Affiliation

This question became one of the biggest talking points during the protest. Many students joined believing that affiliation with PTU meant the fee structure would stay within a similar range. Later, when students compared numbers, they were shocked to see a major difference. For example, B.Tech, MBA and MCA students were paying around ₹1.6 Lacs annually, while PTU's approved fee is around ₹92,200. For B.Com and M.Com as well, the difference was tens of thousands of rupees each year. Students expected a clear and detailed explanation for why the fees were so different, but many felt the answers were not detailed enough. This created confusion and frustration because families had planned finances based on PTU expectations. When clarity did not come quickly, students began questioning transparency and fairness.
