When will online classes begin? Online classes will begin from June 1st says HEC Pakistan.
Previously HEC asked all universities to set up the system of online classes, few universities lacked infrastructure, they were asked to work on their infrastructure and start online classes by June 1st.
HEC is trying to come up with a solution so that education classes could be resumed which have been off due to coronavirus pandemic.
It is said by HEC if locked down is extended to june, which it may all universities will shift to online education. A formal contract has been signed with telecom companies to provide student packages to all the learning students.

There are a few things that we’re still figuring out:
-How can we help students in remote areas?
-What about students that don’t have a laptop/smartphone?
-How can we make data free?
-How will assessments/exams take place?
-What about grades?
-What if the electricity goes out?— HEC Pakistan (@hecpkofficial) April 6, 2020
