ਸ੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਅਮਰਦਾਸ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਜੋਤੀ-ਜੋਤਿ ਦਿਵਸ ਦਿਵਸ 'ਤੇ ਕੋਟਿ-ਕੋਟਿ ਪ੍ਰਣਾਮ

ਇਸਤਰੀ ਦੇ ਹੱਕ ਵਿਚ ਅਵਾਜ਼ ਉਠਾਦਿਆਂ ਹੋਇਆਂ ਗੁਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਪੜਦੇ ਦੀ ਰਸਮ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਬੰਦ ਕਰਵਾਇਆ। ਆਪ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ ਕਿ ਇਸਤਰੀ ਮਰਦ ਵਿਚ ਕੋਈ ਫਰਕ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ, ਜਿਵੇਂ ਮਰਦ ਬਿਨਾਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਪਰਦੇ ਤੋਂ ਸਮਾਜ ਵਿਚ ਵਿਚਰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਸੇ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਇਸਤਰੀ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਇਹ ਅਧਿਕਾਰ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਮਰਦ ਵਾਂਗ ਸਮਾਜ ਵਿਚ ਵਿਚਰ ਅਤੇ ਜੀਅ ਸਕੇ। ਜਦੋਂ ਹਰੀਪੁਰ ਦੇ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀਆਂ ਰਾਣੀਆਂ ਆਪ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਦਰਸ਼ਨ ਕਰਨ ਆਈਆਂ ਤਾਂ ਗੁਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਘੁੰਡ ਚੁੱਕ ਕੇ ਦਰਬਾਰ ਵਿਚ ਆਉਣ ਲਈ ਕਿਹਾ ਤੇ ਗੁਰੂ ਆਦੇਸ਼ ਅਨੁਸਾਰ ਉਹ ਘੁੰਡ ਚੁੱਕ ਕੇ ਹੀ ਦਰਬਾਰ ਵਿਚ ਆਈਆਂ ਤੇ ਗੁਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਦਰਸ਼ਨ ਕੀਤੇ। ਇਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਗੁਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਘੁੰਡ ਦੀ ਰਸਮ ਨੂੰ ਬੰਦ ਕਰਵਾਕੇ ਵੀ ਇਸਤਰੀ ਦੇ ਹੱਕ ਵਿਚ ਅਵਾਜ਼ ਬੁਲੰਦ ਕੀਤੀ।

The ozone layer doesn't ask for attention. It just quietly protects every living thing on Earth — until it doesn't. 🌍

At Akal University, the Department of Life Sciences decided that World Ozone Day deserved more than a lecture. So students planted saplings across campus, turned plain stones into painted messages on conservation, built posters on ozone depletion and sustainable living, and stepped into a debate to argue — and defend — real environmental positions.

Four activities. One shared idea: understanding the ozone layer isn't just a chapter in an environmental science syllabus — it's a responsibility every generation inherits.

The department closed the day with a group photo of the HoD, faculty, and every student who showed up to do more than just listen.

Because awareness that stays in the classroom rarely changes anything. Awareness that turns into a sapling in the ground, or an argument well made — that's the kind that sticks.

They didn't wait for a better time.

Today, 473 people decided the time was now.

The Amrit Sanchar movement, held in honour of Sant Baba Iqbal Singh Ji's centenary, reached five more sacred grounds today:

🔸 Akal Academy Balbehra: 70

🔸 Akal Academy Bilga: 62

🔸 Akal Academy Vichhoa: 163

🔸 Akal Academy Ratta Khera: 106

🔸 Akal University, Talwandi Sabo: 72

473 souls received Khande Di Pahul, accepted the blessing of Dasam Pita Guru Gobind Singh Ji, and joined the Khalsa family.

From school classrooms to university halls, a generation is choosing its identity with open eyes and a bowed head. This was the dream Babaji carried for decades. Every Akal Academy he built was a seed. Today, the harvest was 473 Gursikh lives.

The movement continues. 🙏

Nine students. One week. Zero simulations.

While most physics students are still decoding theory from a textbook, a batch at Akal University spent their week inside a working nuclear physics lab — calibrating GM counters, reading gamma-ray spectra, and running the same experiments that actual researchers rely on.

No shortcuts. No theory-only sessions. Just counting statistics, curve fitting, chi-square analysis, and the unglamorous rigour that separates a physicist from someone who has merely studied physics.

Leading them through it: Dr. P.K. Joshi — Professor of Eminence at Akal University, formerly of HBCSE and TIFR Mumbai, and past President of the International Junior Science Olympiad. That's not a guest lecture. That's research-grade mentorship, delivered at the undergraduate level.

Here's the real story: most institutions teach nuclear physics as a chapter. Akal University's Department of Physics treats it as a discipline — one that demands a lab, not just a lecture hall.

That's the gap between knowing physics and doing it.

𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗽𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆. 𝗜𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿.

The Department of Physiotherapy, Akal University, Talwandi Sabo, marked World Physiotherapy Day 2026 with a day focused on one simple idea: better movement can lead to better health.

With 106 participants, the celebration brought together learning, practical exposure, fitness and healthy competition.

👣 Understanding Foot Health

A Foot Assessment Activity introduced participants to foot posture, alignment, biomechanics and functional assessment, highlighting how early identification of abnormalities can influence posture, gait, balance and mobility.

💪 Putting Fitness into Action

The Physio Fitness Competition challenged participants across strength, endurance, flexibility, balance, coordination and agility, while promoting teamwork, confidence and sportsmanship.

🎯 Learning Through Participation

A Game Stall created an interactive space where movement, coordination and balance became part of the learning experience, combining recreation with fitness awareness.

The celebration also aims to take students beyond textbooks by encouraging them to explore clinical practice, preventive healthcare, innovation and emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence in physiotherapy.

For future physiotherapists, understanding the human body is only one part of the journey.

The bigger goal is to help people move better, stay active and live healthier lives.

Good academic writing begins long before the first sentence is written.

How do you turn an idea into a well-structured academic paper? How do you present an argument with clarity, maintain an appropriate academic tone, and build a logical flow from beginning to end?

To help students develop these essential skills, Akal University, Talwandi Sabo, is organising a webinar on:

“From Plan to Paper: Crafting Academic Writing”

The session will feature Prof. (Dr.) Preeti Mahajan, Department of Library and Information Science, Panjab University, Chandigarh, as the Resource Person.

The webinar aims to help students understand the process of planning, structuring, drafting and refining academic work. It will particularly focus on improving the clarity, tone, organisation and logical structure of assignments, examination responses and dissertations.

Date: September 21, 2026
Time: 2:00 PM
Mode: Online
Venue: Seminar Hall, 2nd Floor
Participants: Students of the Education and Social Science Departments, 2nd and 3rd Year

Academic writing is not simply about putting information on paper. It is about organising ideas, building arguments and communicating knowledge effectively.

Through this session, students will gain practical guidance to approach academic writing with greater structure, clarity and confidence.

In a digitally connected world, cyber safety is no longer just a technical concern. It is a life skill.

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Akal University, Talwandi Sabo, organised a 𝗖𝘆𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝘆𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗦𝗦 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝟯 𝗦𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲.

The session, led by Dr. Upinder Kaur , Head, Department of CSE, focused on helping students recognise common cyber threats and make safer choices online.

From phishing and social engineering to identity theft, financial fraud, malicious links, password attacks and social media scams, students explored how everyday digital habits can either increase or reduce their vulnerability.

The discussion also covered practical steps every digital user can adopt:

🔐 Use strong and unique passwords
🛡️ Enable multi-factor authentication
🔎 Verify suspicious messages and links
📱 Protect personal information and social media privacy
💻 Keep devices and applications updated

With 120 students from Computer Science and Engineering, Computer Science and Liberal Arts participating, the interactive session went beyond awareness. Students discussed real-life situations and were encouraged to take these cyber safety practices back to their families, friends and communities.

Because being digitally literate is not only about knowing how technology works.

It is also about knowing how to use it responsibly and safely.

What does GST reform mean for India’s next phase of economic growth?

Not just for policymakers.

For businesses.
For different sectors.
For employment.
And ultimately, for the vision of a Viksit Bharat.

This question took centre stage at Akal University, Talwandi Sabo, during the two-day National Conference on “Growth Potential After GST Reforms: Sectoral Analysis”, organised by the Department of Economics in collaboration with ICSSR, New Delhi, on September 10–11, 2026.

The conference brought together eminent economists, academicians, researchers and scholars to examine the changing landscape of GST, fiscal policy, sectoral development and India’s economic growth.

Among the distinguished speakers were Dr. Arvind Virmani, former Chief Economic Adviser, Government of India, and Dr. Charan Singh, eminent Indian economist and Guest of Honour, along with experts from IIT Jammu, Central University of Jammu, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University and Central University of Punjab.

But the most valuable part of such conversations is not simply what happens on the stage.

It is what happens when researchers question, scholars debate and evidence challenges assumptions.

With research paper presentations and academic discussions involving participants from universities across the country, the conference created a platform for meaningful knowledge exchange on one of the most important economic reforms shaping India.

Because strong economies are not built by policies alone.
They are built by continuously studying, questioning and improving those policies.

Akal University is proud to facilitate such conversations and contribute to India’s growing ecosystem of research, policy and higher education.

Special appreciation to ICSSR, New Delhi, for its financial support and to all the speakers, researchers, scholars and participants who made the conference meaningful.

What aspect of GST reforms do you think will have the greatest impact on India’s growth in the coming years?

HEALTH & WELLNESS PROGRAMME

NSS Akal University | Posture, Prevention & Practical Exercise

Because your health can't wait for a break

The NSS Unit of Akal University, Talwandi Sabo, organized a Health and Wellness Programme — a lecture-cum-exercise session designed to tackle a problem every student knows too well: back pain, neck strain, and fatigue from hours of sitting and studying.

Led by physiotherapy experts Dr. Kamaldeep Jindal, Dr. Dimple, and Dr. Ritu, the session went beyond theory. Students learned:

🔹 Why posture matters more than they think

🔹 Simple exercises to fix it — practiced live, on the spot

🔹 How to catch health issues early, before they become bigger problems

100 students showed up, asked questions, and left with habits they can actually use — not just advice they'll forget.

Coordinated by Dr. Iqbal Singh, under the guidance of NSS Programme Coordinator Dr. Janpreet Singh.

Because student welfare isn't just about academics. It's about building habits that last a lifetime.
