Allahabad University shifts classes online for November 4 and 5

Allahabad University (UoA) has announced a temporary shift of all teaching activities to online mode for November 4 and 5, 2026. This change affects all departments and centres of the university, with faculty members instructed to conduct classes online from their respective university locations.

The university’s registrar issued a notice regarding this temporary arrangement, which has been approved by the competent authority. Students are required to attend their scheduled classes online during these two days.

Details of the Online Teaching Arrangement

Based on what the official notice from Allahabad University, teaching activities will be exclusively online on November 4 and 5. Faculty members are mandated to deliver their online lectures from their designated university departments or centres, adhering to the prescribed timetable. The notification has been disseminated to all deans, heads of departments, directors, coordinators, and other university officials.

The university has not provided a reason for this temporary transition to online teaching. In addition, the notification does not specify which online platforms should be utilised for conducting these classes. There has been no announcement regarding whether this online teaching arrangement will extend beyond November 5, 2026.

University’s Digital Infrastructure

While the reason for the current online shift remains unstated, Allahabad University has recently developed digital tools to support remote working and paperless operations. A team of students and research scholars from the university designed a web-based package called ‘New file management system’. This system aims to assist university staff in working from home and moving towards paperless office functioning.

The ‘New file management system’ enables departments to process and handle files confidentially and securely online. It incorporates a two-stage authentication process, requiring a login with an email ID and password, followed by Google Authenticator App verification. Each employee has been provided with a unique ID code to access this system, which was developed by Sugam Tripathi, Rahul Kumar Mishra, and Saumya Srivastava. The new system is intended to reduce processing time and enhance accountability by tracking file movement within the university.
