With spontaneous upswing in demand for quality Technical Education, burgeoning pressure on the Premier Technical University of Punjab, Punjab Technical University, Kapurthala, to mitigate regional imbalance in distribution of Temples of quality Technical Education in the State, for exponential socio-economic growth of the Malwa region, to bridge the gap between demand and supply of employable technical human resource, exigency for creation of a new State Technical University in Punjab was realized.

As an outcome of the above endeavours, the University is expected to generate and maintain resources through consultancy services, testing services, Continuing Education Programmes, national and international collaborations, MoU, transfer of intellectual property rights, etc. MRSPTU will cater to the needs of Quality Technical Education in eleven districts of Punjab encompassed in its jurisdiction.
