As per the decision, 25 per cent of the syllabus of both UG and PG students will be covered by ‘Blended Learning’. Fir UG students, the entire second unit (25 per cent of total four units) of each subject and paper is earmarked for self-study.

In case of PG students, respective departments will earmark 25 per cent of the syllabus for self-study.
