New Delhi: Delhi’s Aam Aadmi Party teachers’ and students’ wings wrote to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and requested him to open COVID-19 vaccination centres at 28 Delhi University colleges funded by the Delhi government.
Both associations also demanded the students of these colleges be vaccinated for free before the possibility of a third wave of the pandemic.
The two bodies — Chhatra Yuva Sangharsh Samiti (CYSS) and the Delhi Teachers’ Association (DTA) — wrote to Kejriwal about the demands on Thursday.
“Similar to how the government has taken a decision to vaccinate common people, they should also think about the safety of students in colleges funded by them. Till they (students) have been vaccinated, they should not be asked to return to campus,” DTA in-charge Professor Hansraj Suman said was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
Meanwhile, the RSS-affiliated Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has given a memorandum to 56 Delhi University college principals and requested an extension on the last date of assignment submission.
According to an ABVP statement, 56 college units of the student outfit submitted a memorandum highlighting various issues and requested them to redress those at the earliest.
