All hostels would be closed as well, although foreign students would be allowed to stay in the hostels and get all the necessary care.

The decree also advises all higher educational institutions to ensure that all students and faculty members get vaccinated. If someone has not been vaccinated, the information must be disclosed to the authorities so that necessary action can be taken.

Due to the closure of Maharashtra Colleges, all higher educational institutions in the state are reverting to online classes.

When COVID cases place a strain on the medical system, limits are likely to be implemented, with colleges and universities bearing the brunt of the consequences.

The COVID tally in Maharashtra has alarmed people across the country, with over 18,000 new illnesses confirmed in the last 24 hours. Given that children’s immunization has already begun, the government is debating the extent of restrictions that must be enforced.
