With students from over 40 colleges across Tamil Nadu joining the stir against Sri Lanka, Tamil Nadu Government has ordered all colleges to be closed until further notice. The order stands good for Arts and Science colleges and universities across the State.
The timing of the fast causes a lot of inconvenience for the varisities as it falls right in between or just before the examinations. However, the heads of the colleges said that the exams will be postponed as well. Contact classes for distance learning students were also suspended.
