BENGALURU: Beginning Friday, colleges across the state will throw gates open for students in intermediate semesters after the government allowed resumption of regular classes. Based on the positive response from final year students, who returned to campuses in mid-November, institutions are expecting a decent turnout.
Hopes of full attendance are soaring also because the government has done away with the rule of Covid-19 tests for all students in undergraduate, postgraduate, engineering, and diploma courses. When final year students returned to campuses on November 15, all had to submit Covid negative certificates.
Now, only those who show symptoms need to take a RTPCR test. The relaxation in the rule was announced as part of a new set of standard operating procedures (SOP) announced on Tuesday.

Number of students in a class has been limited to 50% of total strength
While students in intermediate semesters are preparing to return to campuses for the first time in months on Friday, many colleges across the State are likely to face a shortage of classrooms, and also teachers. The number of students in a class is limited to 50% of the total strength to ensure social distancing as a precaution against COVID-19.
One of the solutions is to conduct classes in batches, with the room sanitised between sessions, while another is an alternate day model. T.M. Manjunath, president of the Karnataka Government College Teachers’ Association, said college managements would evaluate how many students would attend classes and then decide whether to conduct lectures in batches.
