"The government will finally announce the dates of the new academic session in UG and PG and all higher educational institutions and will start their first-year classes accordingly".

The Vice-Chancellor of a prominent state university in the city who attended the virtual meeting told PTI that -it was initially decided to start first-year undergraduate classes in colleges from November 1 and postgraduate classes from December 1.

However, as the festive season falls at the end of October and the major part in the month of November therefore it will be difficult the start the courses and pause for the festivals .Hence, both PG and UG courses will be starting from the given date.
