The Punjab Assembly approved the Shri Guru Teg Bahadur World Class University Bill, 2026, aimed at establishing a university in Sri Anandpur Sahib. The institution will offer specialized courses in defence, aerospace, cyber security, and quantum computing, which are currently not available in North India.

An investment of Rs 300 crore is proposed over three years, starting with Rs 20 crore in the current budget. The university is expected to educate over 10,000 students and generate thousands of jobs. The campus will be located near the Kiratpur Sahib-Nangal highway for better connectivity.
