The Mahindra University has closed its Hyderabad campus for physical classes after 30 students and staff were found COVID positive.
Students have been asked to vacate the hostels and go home to take online classes. Those who tested positive have been kept in isolation.

Students claimed that about 1,700 were tested for the virus and about 30 were detected with infection. Though most of the students have taken two doses of vaccination, the problem was with new students who arrived recently. They were either not vaccinated at all or have taken a single dose. Lot of students are under 18 years of age and have not taken any dose.
