PU Introduces New Discipline Policy
The new policy and sports day event demonstrate Punjab University's commitment to providing a safe and healthy environment for its students, with a focus on discipline, physical fitness, and teamwork, and the university's efforts to promote overall well-being among its students, faculty, and staff.
Punjab University has introduced a new policy to maintain discipline in its hostels, with increased fines of up to Rs20,000 for students violating hostel rules, including participation in strikes, fighting, and misbehaving with hostel staff.
The new policy also includes punishments such as cancellation of hostel allotment and departmental suspension for students found guilty of violating hostel rules. The university has displayed warning pamphlets in all hostels to inform students about the new policy. The move is aimed at maintaining a disciplined environment in the hostels and ensuring the safety and security of students.
In a separate event, Punjab University's Centre for Clinical Psychology (CCP) organized a sports day to promote physical fitness, teamwork, and sportsmanship among students, faculty, and staff. The event featured various games and competitions, including ludo, chess, and races, which were held among participants. The event was well-received, with CCP Director Prof Dr Saima Dawood expressing her delight at the overwhelming response.
The sports day was seen as an integral part of the university's culture, promoting overall well-being and fostering community and teamwork among students, faculty, and staff. The event highlighted the importance of sports and physical activity in reducing stress, improving mental health, and promoting physical fitness.
