When the country-wide lockdown was first declared on 25th March 2020, students, teachers and all the stakeholders were taken by surprise. None of them were prepared for such a situation. Students were asked to vacate their hostels in short notice. Many thought the lockdown will be of short duration. However, due to worsening of COVID situation, the lockdown persisted,” it added.

The institute further said, “NIT Manipur had to adopt a new way to carry out its various academic activities in online platform. In a short period of time, NIT Manipur purchased Webex, laptops, etc, to facilitate faculty members to conduct online classes. Students also burned the midnight oil to compete with their counterparts despite various limitations and difficulties.”

Owing to the dedicated efforts of the institute authority, faculty members and hard work of students, the institute achieved academic excellence in the form of research papers, online seminars, sponsored projects, etc, to name a few, the statement said.

“The strength of an educational institute is reflected by the performance and achievements of its students. Many students of the institute are going for higher studies in various institutes across the country and the globe,” it added.
