NCERT books, clear concepts of 10+2 key to UG entrance test, say LU officials
The LU UG entrance test will be held between July 5 and July 12.
"Candidates who want to crack the LU entrance examination need not look for some special study material. All they need to do is prepare their classes 11 and 12 curriculum well. NCERT books and having clarity of concepts taught in 10+2 is the best way to crack the entrance," said LU admission team officials.
LU's entrance test will be based on a multiple-choice questions pattern in which 100 objective questions will be asked.
Each question will be worth 2 marks. There is no negative marking, and a candidate will be given 90 minutes to answer the questions.
LU spokesperson Durgesh Srivastava said if a candidate is giving an entrance test for BA, then the entrance test will have questions from Hindi, English, geography, history, civics, psychology and economics of classes XI and XII.
Similarly, for BCom and BCom (Hons) tests, questions will be from mental ability, commerce, accounting, commercial maths, economics and computer.

Goa researchers develop low-cost method to isolate DNA from soil
Panaji: In an achievement that could help resolve human and wildlife crime, researchers from the National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU), Goa campus, have developed a system to help authorities isolate DNA from soil samples in human and wildlife cases cost-effectively. NFSU faculty member Abhishek Singh, who led the research, said that this new method 'has the potential to be a game-changer in soil forensics, wildlife crime investigation, and environmental DNA (eDNA) studies'. NFSU Goa director Naveen Kumar Chaudhary said that this 'major innovation will significantly reduce the pendency of cases in India and make the investigations time and cost-effective'. Explaining how the new method will work, he said, 'The patented scientific procedure proposed by the NFSU Goa faculty will cut down the time required to extract the DNA from the soil samples and make the entire investigation more scientific and rapid'. This international patient was granted to the NFSU for an invention titled 'A system for isolating high-quality metagenomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from soil samples'. The invention was developed by Suchitra J S, Ashwin Edakkara, and Bhaskar Pandey, students of MSc forensic science and BSc MSc forensic science (integrated). The team was led by assistant professor Sweta Nidhi and Singh, who is coordinator and in charge of the centre for wildlife forensics (CWF), NFSU Goa.

Soil samples were collected from several parts of India, including Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Goa, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu, covering all eight types of soil present in the subcontinent. The physical characteristics of the soil samples were recorded and processed for DNA isolation, and the standardisation and validation of the system took almost half a year. The extraction system is a German patent and will be accessible globally upon request.

Students celebrate Moon Day with workshops, films & missions at RSC
1 2 Cuttack: With models, movies and moments of discovery, the Regional Science Centre (RSC), Bhubaneswar, transformed into a hub of curiosity and learning as it celebrated International Moon Day on Sunday. Commemorating the first Moon landing by Apollo 11 in 1969, the event drew around 100 school students and public, aimed to inspire young minds and raise awareness about space research. A hands-on workshop, 'Phases of the Moon', was conducted where students built working models to understand the lunar cycle. Kits were provided by the centre and participants, with the guidance of experts, received certificates and course materials for further learning. "The day is not just about looking back at the Moon landing; it is also about inspiring the next generation to dream big and explore the universe. We are proud to see such enthusiasm among students," said RSC head Kapil Jain. An exclusive film screening showcased the Apollo 11 Moon landing and India's advancements in lunar exploration. "Building the Moon model helped me understand how the Moon changes shape every night. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like When the Camera Clicked at the Worst Possible Time Read More Undo It was fun and educational," said Ritika Mohanty, a Class IX student. Another participant, Sourav Patra, said, "I didn't know India had such a big role in Moon missions. Now, I want to learn more about Isro and become a space scientist." The celebrations included an interactive session between RSC staff and students and encouraged questions on topics about space science and exploration.

Days before SC quashed assistant prof recruitment, nuclear astrophysicist was invited to present research paper at CSUF
Bathinda: Only days before the Supreme Court quashed the recruitment of 1158 assistant professors and librarians in government colleges of Punjab, nuclear astrophysicist assistant professor Rajesh Kumar had got an invite to present a research paper in California State University Fullerton (CSUF). As he failed to get a visa due to paucity of time, Rajesh presented his research paper in hybrid mode. Posted at government college Talwara, Rajesh was invited by California State University to present neutron star research in GravNu 2025, gravitational-wave astronomy meets nuclear astrophysics 'integrating contemporary observational constraints into a generalised chiral description of dense matter' as the researchers from multiple fields, working together to understand how gravitational-wave astronomy got together from July 7-11, to help understand the dense matter equation of state and heavy-element nucleosynthesis in the universe. Earlier, his research paper was published in physical review 'exploring the role of hexaquarks on quark deconfinement and hybrid starts' was published in peer-reviewed scientific journal 'Physical Review'. Rajesh remained in the US for 3 years at Kent State University Ohio for post doctorate research in nuclear astrophysicist. He said presenting research papers in California State University is an honour for me but the government college in Punjab. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo A number of talented researchers were among those recruited in 1158 and now are on the roads. Mohammad Sohail Dhillon, PhD in Public Administration, is another teacher, having multiple achievements under his sleeve but is on the roads. He had done post doctorate research in universities in Canada, the US and Singapore over fellowships by renowned institutions including National University of Singapore. He also got funded post doctorate research work twice in China and in South Africa. Returned from Germany Gurdeep Singh, PhD in Chemistry was into post doctorate research at RWTH Aachen University in Germany and returned to join as assistant professor after a division bench of Punjab and Haryana high court upheld the recruitment in September 2024. Similarly, a couple Sukhpreet Singh and his wife Harpreet Kaur, both into Punjabi language returned from Canada to join services as assistant professors in government colleges at Patiala and Nabha.
