The Punjab University on Friday banned curricular and extracurricular activities of all student organisations on the premises of the university here.

The action was taken on the recommendation of the committee constituted by the administration after a recent clash between student organisations.

Students, who want to hold a program, reportedly will need to first submit a proposal to the administration.

The administration will then evaluate the proposal and if approved, the university may provide security to avoid any untoward incident.

Earlier this week, at least five people were injured as students from the Islami Jamiat Taleba (IJT) allegedly gatecrashed a Pakhtun cultural event being held at PU.
