										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Though the number of state-run arts and science colleges have increased over the years in Tamil Nadu, hostels have not been set up in proportion to such new institutions, the PMK said here on Sunday and demanded more hostel facilities for students while urging the government to ease norms to address the issue.</p>
<p>During the past eight years, the number of arts and science colleges have more than doubled from 69 in 2013 to 143 at present, the party founder leader S Ramadoss said. The number of hostels was not however increased correspondingly, he said, batting for more hostels.</p>
<p>While many new institutions are in rural areas, the hostels are mostly in urban regions. Though some hostels are located close to colleges, a rule however barred students from getting admitted to hostels if the location of colleges and hostels fell under separate revenue districts, though these two centres could be located relatively closer, he said.</p>
<p>Despite the fact that students of a government run college at Perumbakkam here may stay in a state run hostel in Guindy area, hostel administration does not allow students of that college stating that their institution fell under Chengelpet district. &#8220;It would take at least three hours to travel between Perumbakkam college and Chengelpet hostel. This is not possible.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are several vacancies in hostels across Tamil Nadu and if the government relaxed the rule on district borders for admission purposes and announced that students of any government college may join any state-run hostel, about &#8220;70 per cent of the problem can be solved,&#8221; he said in a statement.</p>
<p>Admission to arts and science courses in government colleges are in full swing and about 90 per cent of seats have been filled and the remaining seats are also expected to be filled soon.</p>
<p>Though students are happy that they have got admission to courses of their choice, those who have not got hostel admission are disappointed, the PMK leader said.</p>
<p>(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by The Edge Media staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Vice-Chancellor of Delhi University praised the Delhi Disaster Management Authority&#8217;s (DDMA) standard operating procedures (SOP) on Wednesday and stated that a final decision to reopen colleges in a phased manner would be made this week.</p>
<p>The VC further stated that a final decision on the phased reopening would be made in the following five to six days because the university needs to plan how to accommodate students from other states in the hostels.</p>
<p>He further stated that the university would ensure that students who intend to attend classes in the offline mode are vaccinated and that the vaccination of DU faculty is nearly complete.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Puducherry Administration has decided to reopen colleges and schools for the students of Classes 9 to 12 from July 16, Chief Minister N Rangaswamy announced. The schools and colleges were shut for physical classes in view of the Covid crisis.</p>
<p>Government-run and privately managed colleges in Puducherry were earlier directed to conduct classes only online following the rise in number of coronavirus cases in the Union Territory. The classes would be held six days a week (Monday to Saturday).</p>
<p>On March 11, the Governor approved a proposal to declare the students of Classes 1 to 9 in the Union Territory as &#8216;all pass&#8217; this academic year.</p>
<p>The students of Class 10 and Class 11 in Puducherry and Karaikal will be declared &#8216;all pass&#8217; as per guidelines of the Tamil Nadu Board.</p>
<p>Similarly, students of Classes 10 and 11 in the Mahe and Yanam regions would be promoted as per the guidelines of the Boards of Education in Kerala and Andhra Pradesh respectively said a Raj Nivas release.</p>
<p>As the Covid cases are declining in the country, several states including Bihar and Haryana have announced resuming classes in offline mode. However, while announcing the reopening of schools and colleges, these states have also said that attendance will not be mandatory and Covid protocols will be followed.</p>
