Steps will be taken to fully open all the universities in the month of September by the University Grants Commission (UGC).
The universities that were completely closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic have not yet fully reopened. In some universities, academic activities are conducted through the online system. Thus, after more than two years, the university system will be fully operative from September and physical lectures in universities will be conducted. Meanwhile, studies in some universities are conducted without the full student capacity as per the COVID-19 regulations issued by the Health Ministry. Accordingly, students are summoned in groups to universities to study.
One of the main demands of the recent protest held by the Inter-University Student Union was to reopen the universities as soon as possible.
