  Quarantine Centre in Nagaland for returnees from other States in India

  The Government of Nagaland in an effort to prevent the spread of Covid-19 has implemented a statewide lockdown and also initiated the establishment of Observatory Quarantine Centres for native residents who are returning back to Nagaland from other States across India. The returnees must observe a mandatory 14 day quarantine period before travelling on next to their villages or rural home towns. Seen here are returnees who arrived around 9 PM (IST) by train from Chennai, Tamil Nadu waiting in line to enter their Quarantine Centre at Tetso College, Dimapur, Nagaland. They will live here for 14 days or more under strict vigilance and undergo tests to determine whether they are Covid -19 positive. If any of the returnees are tested positive, they will then be shifted to the Covid-19 hospital for further treatment.

  Online Education: The New Normal

  Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Higher Education scenario in Nagaland, India has been challenged with the need to either adapt to the use of technology or fall behind. As online education becomes a forced necessity, problems faced by the economically weaker certain sections of society alongside the lack of infrastructural support in the State remain stumbling blocks in transitioning to online education. On the other hand, deny it or not, online education is the Future of Education and although not all Institutes are ready, many others are ready to push ahead.
