UGC No field visits

Colleges and universities across the country have begun to reopen after having closed since March 2020 due to the pandemic.

UGC asked universities to hire a consultant to visit regularly to ensure mental well-being and stress-free campuses.

Faculty, staff and students of universities and colleges should be encouraged to download the “Aarogya Setu application”.
