"I appeal to the student community to not harbour any doubt about the scheduled time table of the examinations," Narayana added.
"Academic year 2021-22 will start functioning immediately and students will have both the options of offline and online classes," he said, adding that online classes would start quite early and this year it will be mandatory for students either to attend the classes.
The Deputy CM said that all the universities and colleges will have to follow the standard operating procedure to contain the spread of Covid, when conducting the off-line classes.
