In a strong message to students flouting Covid-19 protocols and health norms like not wearing face masks, coming to college despite symptoms of fever and cold, a First Grade College sent students back home for not wearing face masks.

The incident was reported from Koppal First Grade College in north Karnataka.

The Higher Education department has reopened colleges after ten months of closing due to pandemic enforced lockdown and rising cases post Unlock.

Now following Covid-19 protocols, all first grade colleges in the state have been instructed to reopen.

The students are hereby told to follow guidelines like wearing face masks, maintaining social distance, sanitizing hands regularly and reporting to staff and parents in case they have symptoms like fever and others.
