The second dose vaccination has also been started from today and we are targeting a fully vaccinated university workforce in the coming days”, said Dr Parvinder Kaushal.

The students residing at the homes have also been motivated to get themselves vaccinated so that everyone is in the position to come to the campus whenever the campus fully opens”, Dr. Kaushal added.
