Talking about following precautionary during exams, Dr Venkatesh said, “We are already maintaining a one-metre physical distance between students during the examinations. If the need arises, we will increase the number of centres and ensure more physical distancing is practised in the exam halls.”

Meanwhile, the OU also announced summer vacation in advance for the postgraduate programmes. Students will now have a vacation from May 11 to June 7. The vacation is applicable to PG programmes such as MA, MSc, MCom, MSW, MCJ, MLibISc, MPEd, MBA etc.
