The 'inter-state corporate body’ status of Panjab University turned out to be an obstruction for the varsity to seek ‘Institute of Eminence Status’ following which it is as of now, ineligible to be among the renowned world class institutes in India.

Only government or privately owned universities are eligible to register for ‘Institute of Eminence Status’. Panjab University is the only varsity in India that enjoys the above-mentioned unique status. The varsity is controlled neither by state government nor by the central government. The officials of PU were unhappy with the UGC notification for the universities seeking ‘Institute of Eminence Status’.
