Hello Aspirant,

As we know that as of now in Maharashtra cases are gradually increasing again which seems to be the second wave of COVID-19 and the circumstances are becoming unfavorable and the Maharashtra government has decided to keep the schools and colleges closed till November 30th as a preventional measure and if we discuss about the latest UGC Guidelines which have been issued two days ago, then it clearly states that from November 1st new session should be started for first year students either in online made or offline mode whichever will be most convenient as per the situation. There is no any news regarding reopening of schools and colleges in Maharashtra. As of now online classes system has been adopted by almost all institutions. Also note that the colleges are allowed to reopen with the proper consent of respective state government or UT governments.

I hope this information cleared your doubts.

Good Luck!!
