Repeals and Savings FOREWORD The Punjab Agricultural University Act, passed by the State Legislature, received the approval of the Government of Punjab on 13th October, 1961 leading to the establishment of the University in 1962. On the reorganization of the State of Punjab, an Ordinance was promulgated to provide for the establishment of two independent Universities for two States, namely Punjab and Haryana. This Ordinance was subsequently replaced by an Act of Parliament namely ‘The Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970’. The last edition of ‘PAU Act & Statutes’ was published in December 2007. The present edition brings up-to-date all the amendments made in the Statutes till November, 2012. This is the most important book for the guidance of the officers, faculty members and ministerial staff in their day-to-day working. I hope that this edition will prove highly useful for all.
