Lovely Professional University has postponed its mid‑term examinations and suspended regular classes for ten days starting September 28 following violent protests on campus.
Lovely Professional University (LPU) has announced that its mid‑term examinations will be postponed and that regular classes will be suspended for ten days starting September 28. The decision follows a series of violent protests that erupted on campus earlier this week.
According to the university’s statement, clashes between student groups and campus security forces resulted in injuries and damage to property. The unrest prompted authorities to halt academic activities for the safety of students and staff.
LPU officials said the examinations will be rescheduled once the campus is deemed safe, and classes will resume after the ten‑day suspension. The university has pledged to keep students informed about the new dates.
Students and faculty have voiced concerns about the disruption, but the administration has assured them that it is working closely with local police and the university’s safety committee to restore normalcy.
