Jamia Milia Islamia has announced that it will resume the offline classes for the final-year postgraduate students from March 2 and for final-year undergraduate students from mid-March. JMI stated in an official notification that the varsity will open in a phased manner taking into consideration the travel time of outstation students who require necessary preparation to reach Delhi, but added that the hostels will not open till COVID-19 protocols are in place.
The varsity has made it mandatory for students to present a negative RT-PCR report along with a valid ID card to attend the offline classes. The university has asked all staff to strictly follow the COVID-19 protocol issued by the central government from time to time during their stay on the campus.
"The university has limited seats in the Boys/Girls Hostels and the hostel buildings are under renovation/maintenance work. Taking into consideration the COVID-19 protocol, it is not possible/advisable to provide residential accommodation till Covid protocol exists. The Provosts of Hall of Residence are required to monitor the renovation/maintenance work personally and prepare a fresh list of students for hostel allotment in each hostel after renovation is over," the order read.
