Chandigarh, March 17 -- The Punjab Vidhan Sabha on Monday passed two bills, including the Shri Guru Tegh Bahadur World Class University, Punjab Bill, 2026, to establish a new university at Anandpur Sahib. The Punjab Regulation of Crusher Units, Stockists and Retailers (Amendment) Bill, 2026, was also introduced by water resources and mining minister Barinder Kumar Goyal. Both bills were passed, amid a war of words between LoP Partap Singh Bajwa and minister Goyal. Attacking the government, Bajwa alleged that the AAP has failed to garner Rs.20,000 crore per annum revenue from mining, which the party had claimed before the 2022 state polls. Refuting the allegation, Goyal said, "The ongoing reforms and policy initiatives are aimed at substantially enhancing the state's income from the sector." He reiterated that the government's sustained efforts towards potash exploration and progressive mining reforms hold the potential to generate revenue exceeding Rs.20,000 crore. Later, education minister Harjot Singh Bains presented the bill to establish a new state university amid support from the opposition benches. Moving the bill on Monday, Bains highlighted the significance of Anandpur Sahib and Guru Tegh Bahadur's sacrifice. "The holy city's land was purchased by Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji himself. It's a humble tribute to his legacy," he stated. The bill proposes to establish a university in Anandpur Sahib that will offer specialised courses in defence, aerospace, cyber security and quantum computing. Bains said a Rs.300 crore has been proposed for investment over the next three years, with an initial allocation of Rs.20 crore in the current budget....
