Delhi University (DU) has dismissed claims about extending online classes in light of the ongoing air quality crisis. The university clarified on Sunday that no such decision has been taken, labelling the widely circulated notice as fake.
A letter falsely attributed to DU claimed that online classes for undergraduate and postgraduate students would extend until November 28 due to Delhi’s alarming Air Quality Index (AQI). The university took to its official X (formerly Twitter) account, posting the fake notice with a bold watermark reading “FAKE.”
The fake notice had stated, “The Competent Authority has decided to extend the online mode of classes till Thursday, the 28th of November, 2024. The schedule of Examinations and Interviews shall remain unchanged.”
DU reiterated that this information is incorrect and urged students to rely only on official sources for updates.
Delhi University resumed regular physical classes on November 25, following a brief online period due to hazardous air quality index levels in Delhi-NCR.
The university has previously conducted online classes until November 23, 2024, but will resume physical classes on November 25, 2024. The university has faced a trend of fake notices, with schools across Delhi-NCR continuing classes in hybrid mode due to air pollution.
