The enqineering students have been demanding to reopen the top institutes for technology in India including IITs, IIITs and NITs. The reason for this is, the vaccination program has covered more than 50 Crore people for single dose and more than 14 crore people have taken double dose. Also, the number of new covid cases is on decline for quite some time now.
The students are worried about the studies and their future as learning without practise or labs is not helpful in innovation. Lack of practice in labs which is required for many programs run by these premium institutes is causing issues in learning the subjects. Worried about the future, a section of students has taken to social media platforms to express their disappointment with the manner in which colleges and departments have shifted to online classes. The students have been trending hashtags like #ReopenIIT, #ReopenNIT and #ReopenEngineeringColleges.
Several students demand that engineering colleges and departments should also reopen in offline mode as everything in the country is unlocked. They also claim that due to online classes they are facing learning loss, especially in the practical courses which need hands-on training.
