The COVID-19 pandemic has been nothing less than a nightmare. The deadly virus affected millions of lives, the death toll became a major concern for the authorities and the aam aadmi was forced to stay indoors for months. Not just the entertainment industry was shut, the educational institutions, gyms, restaurants were closed too and life came to a standstill. However, as things are finally getting to normal with COVID-19 cases declining significantly, Delhi University has finally reopened its gates for students of undergraduate and postgraduate courses from today.

Students were seen arriving in large numbers to attend their respective colleges in the national capital. “Excited to be back and catch up with friends. Online studying was monotonous,” a student from Ramjas college was quoted saying. On the other hand, a student from Kirori Mal college expressed her excitement to attend college for the first time. She said, “It's about the vibe you get at college, can't be experienced at home. I am coming for the first time”. To note, Delhi University had earlier reportedly released a notice asking the college authorities to ensure that the students attending the classes are vaccinated.
