A week after Covid-19 vaccination was opened for everyone aged 18 and above, the state’s higher education department finally met to decide the way ahead to inoculate college students on campus.

Higher and Technical Education Minister Uday Samant had announced the plan last month, but there was no further communication after that. A meeting was finally held on Friday at the directorate of higher education to brainstorm to conduct the vaccination drive on campus, and a pro forma was prepared to collect the required data of students.
