Due to the Corona epidemic in the country, IGNOU has taken several preventive steps. All the Theory & Practical counselling sessions for the students are suspended till March 31. They will be rescheduled after the Government gives clearance. The revised dates will be intimated to all the students.
The assignment submission the last date has also been extended from March 31 to April 30. It is aimed at preventing students from grouping at the Study Centre for submitting the assignments. The home assignment question papers are available on IGNOU website. Students are advised to download the assignment question papers and prepare the answers.
IGNOU is also scheduling some of the counselling classes through Gyanvani FM Radio station. Through this facility, students need not gather together in a classroom, but they can listen to the classes from their residence itself.
They can clarify their doubts through telephone on this phone-in radio programme. The concerned students will be intimated through SMS/e-mail about the Radio classes schedule. Gyan Vani is available on 105.6 MHz and the telephone for interaction with the teacher is 0712-2510002.
Induction Meeting for the newly admitted students is also scheduled on March 20 Friday from 7 PM to 8 PM. All the newly admitted students are requested to listen to the programme.
Gyan Vani Nagpur is successfully conducting for the last one year the Mediated Phone in Radio Counselling for the IGNOU student Prisoners of Nagpur Central Jail.
As a precautionary measure, IGNOU Nagpur Regional Centre has provided masks and sanitizer to the officials dealing with students also.
