Hello,


Both Chandigarh University and Lovely Professional University are good college. But for Agriculture i would say LPU is the better option. The primary reason being LPU is Indias first Private University to get ICAR Accreditation. And as we all know The Indian Council of Agricultural Research ( ICAR) is the apex body for coordinating, guiding, and managing research and education.

I hope this helps.
