NIT Srinagar To Reopen From October 15 After Over Two Months Of Closure news18.com

The National Institute of Technology (NIT), Srinagar, will reopen on October 15 after remaining closed for a period of 74 days, the union HRD ministry announced on Friday.

The institute had shut down indefinitely on August 3 when massive troop deployments were made to Kashmir Valley ahead of Parliament’s decision to withdraw special status from the state by reading down Article 370.

“NIT Srinagar will reopen on 15th October! @HRDMinistry @nitsriofficial. Wishing all the best for a smooth academic session ahead,” tweeted Education Secretary R Subrahmanyam on Friday.
