Chandigarh Admin Puts Vaccine Mandate On Hold Following SC Order
The UT Chandigarh Administration has shelved its plans to bar unvaccinated school students from attending physical classes following the SC order, which held that vaccine mandates are not proportionate. UT Adviser Dharam Pal, who had earlier banned unvaccinated people from public places, now admits, "Covid vaccination is optional." Parents and schools have welcomed the decision that no student should be barred from education, regardless of their Covid vaccination status.
