It was the fourth University to be established by the British colonial authorities on the Indian Subcontinent. The first three universities were established by the British rulers at their initial strongholds of Bombay, Madras, and Calcutta. The University of Punjab came into existence as a result of a long-drawn struggle of the people of Punjab after the war of independence in 1857. Contrary to the three previously established universities, which were only examining institutions, the University of Punjab was both teachings as well as examining body right from the beginning. Until independence in 1947, The University of Punjab fulfilled the educational needs of a vast region of the Subcontinent. Partition of the Subcontinent somewhat reduced the geographical limits of the jurisdiction of the University. However, for many years after independence, it still ranged over vast areas including Punjab, NWFP, Baluchistan, and Azad Jammu & Kashmir. New universities were set up later in the country to share responsibility for imparting higher education with the University of Punjab.
