    The comparison is unfair as the institutions have different levels. CGC is a PTU affiliated college while LPU is a renowned international university. LPU has been featured among the top institutions by NIRF, ATAL (MHRD) and Outlook all of which are leading ranking systems. CGC being a college or a group of colleges cant actually compete, lets be fair to them
