Tamil Nadu recovers from cyclone Nivar, the week was caught attention with major announcements from the education ministry as well. Competitive exams were also postponed in cyclone-affected areas in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. Technical courses, especially engineering, will be taught in the mother-tongue at select IITs and NITs from next year and the National Testing Agency has been tasked with issuing a new syllabus for Joint Engineering Entrance (JEE) Main, the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), and other entrance exams for the next year.

While the education ministry has directed the University Grants Commission (UGC) to ensure timely disbursement of scholarships, several Delhi University colleges have stepped up to provide financial aid for students facing financial difficulties amid the pandemic.

Considering the safety of students, more states have decided to extend the lockdown on educational institutions till December 31. After registering the highest single day spike in COVID-19 cases, Delhi Government hinted that it may not open schools until the COVID-19 vaccines are available. States which reopened schools on a voluntary basis are registering low attendance.

From next year, the engineering course will be taught in the mother-tongue, the Union education minister Ramesh  Pokhriyal 'Nishank' announced on Wednesday. According to the ministry, a few Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and the National Institutes of Technology (NITs) are being shortlisted for it. In addition, the National Testing Agency, responsible for organising engineering and medical entrance exams, has been asked to draw up a fresh syllabus for exams such as JEE Main 2021 and NEET 2021, based on the board exam syllabus. Many state and central school education boards have docked their 2021 exam syllabi.
