At what point in time was the University of the Punjab established__________?
Show answer Hide answer
Answer: B. 1882
Explanation
The University of the Punjab was established in Lahore in eighteen hundred and eighty-two as an early major university. Historical records confirm that the institution received its formal incorporation charter during that exact year. It became one of the foundational examining and teaching universities established by the British administration in India. Lahore served as a major cultural and educational hub in the northern regions of the British Indian Empire. The university was created to meet the rising demand for higher education following the model of London University. Affiliated colleges across the province prepared students for examinations administered by the Punjab University board.
Option A suggests eighteen hundred and eighty which is two years prior to the official establishment. Option C proposes eighteen hundred and eighty-one which predates the formal charter by a single year. Option D incorrectly repeats the eighteen hundred and eighty date found in the first option choice.
