Chandigarh: Panjab University with its headquarters in Chandigarh - the foothills of the Shivaliks - believes it can sustain a long distance relationship. It is for this reason that it is looking forward to giving affiliation to a college more than 2,600km away in Port Blair in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Multi-Disciplinary College, Port Blair, has sought temporary affiliation from the university for three courses - undergraduate courses in architecture planning and fine arts and a post-graduate course in management for the 2016-17 session.
