Nagpur University begins 2021-22 academic session via online classes
Rashtrasant Tukdoji Maharaj Nagpur University, on Monday, kick-started its 2021-22 academic session in an online mode. All classes for different courses would be conducted online.
Amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, schools, colleges and universities are still shut since March 2020. The Maharashtra government has not issued any guidelines to re-open education campuses yet.
The 2020 final semester exams of RTMNU were also conducted in online mode due to a sudden surge in COVID cases in May.
