As life returns to normal at a slow pace in almost all sectors affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, college students may also be able to return to classrooms soon. The state government is trying to draw up a plan for re-opening colleges for in-person classes, state Higher and Technical Education Minister Uday Samant said in Pune on Wednesday.

Samant said he has asked senior officials from his department to conduct a meeting with district collectors, disaster management authorities and vice-chancellors, to prepare a plan for re-opening colleges in physical mode.

The minister acknowledged that for colleges to restart, it is important to open up hostels for students from rural areas, so that they can return to attend classes in colleges and universities.

Thank you😊
