Faculty members are well-qualified, but placement through this college seems next to impossible.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is not bad. It is good enough to stay focused. Surroundings are also clean and tidy. There are no issues with the infrastructure because the classrooms are spacious. Moreover, the library also has a large volume of books in every niche.

University for Punjabis only.

Infrastructure: Superb infrastructure for sports. I am cutting a star because of the hostel. Hostels are not well-maintained, but otherwise, the grounds and libraries are top class. They provide various facilities to students, such as a gym, pool, etc. Many canteens are not so good, and the mess is very poor.

A good campus life with decent facilities and helpful staff.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was average but good enough for daily classes. Labs had the basic equipment we needed, and Wi-Fi worked most of the time. Classrooms were clean and comfortable. The library was helpful, but it needed more updated books. Hostel rooms were okay, and the food was manageable. Sports and medical facilities were simple but useful when required.
