Masters student come for just 1 year to get the advance level of education but that has also been affected by COVID 19. Online classes can't serve the main purpose. NO access of library,labs etc to complete the course works. Therefore these things should bring into considerdation.
Due to current situation, the parliament should givr Post study work visa to current student too so they could cover what they have missed and also get some industry experience to fullfill that practical needs of their program.
