We will take a review of the situation on October 2, and if the situation is favourable, a decision to reopen colleges in a phase-wise manner can be taken,”

Depending on the number of cases and TPR, the corporations can decide whether to resume in-person classes,” said one of the member. further he continued saying “We are looking at the possibility of reopening schools post the Diwali break. However, the commissioner will take the final decision. It depends on the Covid-19 numbers after Diwali,”
