The COVID-19 has disturbed the lives of everyone. From two months of lockdown, India is moving towards unlock as cases surge in the country. March and April is the month when students need to appear for the exams. Due to coronavirus, it needed to postponed.
Maharashtra is the epicenter of the virus in India. Looking at the situation, Maharashtra CM a week ago has canceled final year exams in the state.
I held a meeting of Vice-Chancellors yesterday regarding final year college exams. They unanimously said that the present circumstances do not allow for examinations to be held immediately as it is risky for lakhs of students to come together for exams.
