IIM-A, IIT-Gandhinagar Wrap students in Bio-Bubble

Ahmedabad: The third wave has encouraged the Premier Institute to make bio-bubbles – a concept popularized last year by sports events where individuals who are fully vaccinated are not permitted to get along with the outside world and vice versa, to control large outbreaks and ensure students remain on campus .
To put everything in perspective, at IIM Ahmedabad (IIM-A), the first two weeks of January have recorded 113 Covid cases, an average of 7.5 cases every day.
At IIT Gandhinagar (IIT-GN), officials said “Some new cases that have been recorded, new cases are quite light and recovery quickly”.
IIM-A, since the start of Pandemi, recorded 579 cases, while IIT-GN had recorded 267 cases on campus at the end of the second wave.
A spokesman for IIim-a spokesman told TII that resident students were allowed on campus, even when the class was done online.
“All movements are subject to permission from the Office of Student Activities (SAO).
The meeting is not allowed and a visit from outside is subject to the virtual meeting is encouraged,” said a spokesman.
Likewise, on the IIT-Gn, collecting more than four people is not recommended.
A senior official told TII that student volunteers were appointed to ensure that the Covid protocol was followed.
“Those who don’t wear a mask are fined Rs 1,000.
Outside entries only through previous agreements.
Double vaccination certificates and take mandatory temperatures,” the official said.
In both institutions, the isolation period seven days after the arrival and negative RT-PCR reports must be on campus.
Outer food is also limited to a certain extent.
Some other housing campuses also put strict restrictions for those who want to live in the city.
Plans to open campuses for students have also taken back seats.
While Cept University has shifted his meeting in January online, several youth festivals – generally took place in January – will also take place online at most institutions.
“We have planned to open campus for offline studies from January.
But considering the recent waves in the case, we will continue their education in online mode,” Dr.
Jagadeesh Chandra T G, Registrar of Gnlu.
“We have also asked LLM students who live on campus to empty the hostel.
Thus, we do not have students on campus now.”
