PU: Solar power project still to see light of day
Despite the recommendation of the varsity panel last year to expedite the installation of rooftop solar panels on campus, the implementation of the solar power project is still pending at Panjab University (PU).
The panel formed to look into austerity measures had suggested curtailing spending amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Although the panel was formed last year to chalk out the modalities, project implementation is still pending on campus.
In May 2016, the Chandigarh administration had also issued a notification making the installation of rooftop solar power plants mandatory for residential and non-residential buildings in the city.
