The Punjab government has approved Rs18.862 billion for the Punjab University of Technology, Rasul, in Mandi Bahauddin, for a major upgrade covering new buildings, classrooms and other facilities. The approval was given at a meeting of the Provincial Development Working Party (PDWP), the body that reviews provincial development schemes before funds are released.
What was cleared
The allocation was approved during the PDWP meeting held on Friday. It forms part of a provincial development package worth Rs126.7 billion, and the University of Technology, Rasul, receives its share from that larger sum. The upgrade is one of several items the package covers across the province.
Why the upgrade matters
The funding is aimed at expanding the university's capacity and modernising its academic infrastructure so that it can better serve students. Both goals concern the campus itself. The approval, as announced, does not mention changes to fees, admissions or course offerings.
