PUEA History Overview

The Progressive United Engineers’ Association (PUEA) is not merely a professional fraternity; it is the pinnacle of collective aspiration and the institutional paradigm of raging solidarity. Contrived on the auspicious day of 30th August 2015, amidst the serpentine landscape of West Bengal’s engineering community, PUEA germinated as an audacious experiment in unity — a gauntlet where diverse departmental allegiances coalesced into a singular phalanx of progressivism. What commenced as an embryonic initiative by junior engineers has since transmogrified into a formidable colossal of representation, simultaneously championing technical expertise and social obligation across the State for the apex fraternity of Engineers at an epic blistering euphoria.
