There is no need to shut down educational institutions right now, the National Technical Advisory Committee (NTAC) on Covid-19 has suggested to the government.
"We have recommended continuing in-person academic activities as it is now," said NTAC President Prof Dr Mohammad Shahidullah after a meeting with the education ministry on Sunday.
Shahidullah said the committee will review the Covid-19 situation and sit down again to discuss the best option if necessary.
A press conference will be held at the ministry on Monday 11am to disclose details about the meeting.
