DU Updates

On Friday, Deputy Minister Manish Sisodia declared that colleges can start offline classes from 1 September. Consequently, JNU, Delhi University, and JMI will hold an internal conference to discuss the same.

The Delhi government has issued the notice that colleges and schools can continue the offline mode. However, schools will only open for classes 9 to 12 in a phased manner. 

Delhi University reopened in February only for final year students to access labs. Later, due to the second wave, it was also discontinued.

At the start of August, DU officially announced to restart the offline classes, but some teachers showed disagreement.

Moreover, DU registrar Vikas Gupta has cleared that the campus will not reopen from 1 September. Because they did not receive any guidelines from the Delhi Disaster Management Authority. He added colleges will first reopen for science students.
