Telangana HC orders to hold online classes till Feb 20 in view of pandemic

The Telangana High Court on Wednesday directed the educational institutions in the state to conduct online classes in view of the current Covid-19 pandemic situation.

The court gave the directions while hearing petitions relating to the Covid situation in the state.

Three days after the educational institutions re-opened across the state, the court directed them to conduct online



classes along with physical classes for those students who prefer the virtual mode in view of the pandemic situation.

All schools, colleges and universities re-opened but the attendance remained poor as the state continues to report a large number of Covid cases. With many students and even teachers down with the Covid symptoms, majority of the private schools and colleges have not resumed physical classes.
