New Delhi/IBNS: The Centre has appealed to all campus recruiters not to withdraw their job offers to the graduating from technical institutions.

Making an appeal, HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal said the present coronavirus pandemic is a temporary one and the government is taking measures to pull the country out of it.

The HRD minister's statement came after a US-based consultancy cancelled job offers to students of IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras, IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore,  and IIM Calcutta this week, said an Indian Express report.

Pokhriyal asked the company to consider its decision as the students they have chosen are among the brightest in the country and can help them tide over the tough times.

In a meeting held with IITs last week, Pokhriyal has asked them to hold special campusing for students whose job offers have been cancelled.

The directors of IIT Delhi and Kanpur have said they will hold such drives in July-August period.
