RAYAT BAHRA UNIVERSITY Summary
Rayat Bahra University is a private university in Mohali district, Punjab, established in 2014 under the Rayat-Bahra University Act, 2014. Punjab Act No. 16 of 2014 received state approval in August 2014 and created the university at the Rayat Bahra campus in the Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar region. The university is part of the Rayat Bahra Group, an education organization established in 2001 that later expanded across universities, schools, healthcare and other sectors. The university provides multidisciplinary education through academic units spanning engineering and technology, management, commerce, sciences, computing, law, pharmacy, agriculture, humanities and other professional areas. Its location near Chandigarh places it within a major education and employment corridor while the wider group's institutional network supports industry exposure, professional training and student mobility across related initiatives. Rayat Bahra University represents the group's first major private-university platform in Punjab and provides the academic autonomy needed to design degree programs, research pathways and university-level governance. Its legal establishment in 2014 should be distinguished from the earlier history of the Rayat Bahra Group and its colleges. Since becoming a university, the institution has expanded its multidisciplinary program mix and research activity while retaining the group's focus on career-oriented education. The university's current identity therefore combines a 2001 organizational heritage with a 2014 statutory foundation in Mohali. Established under the Rayat-Bahra University Act, 2014.
