The Chairman of Higher Education Commission Tariq Banuri along with the Vice Chancellors of universities unanimously agreed on starting regular online classes from June 1.

The chairman announced after the meeting on Tuesday that all universities will be provided an SOP and guidelines regarding online classes and internet connections.

He instructed the universities to make a plan and strategy for online classes, “All universities should announce the admissions at the same time”, he added.
