Hearing these points, I feel making online studying more robust can help. I disagree with the decentralisation aspect cause one student might need help from different coaching institutes. So until n unless the entire fraternity decides to shift to some other locality it won't be that favourable for students.
To make online space more robust:
1. the live lectures can be in Zoom format so it gives a greater classroom feeling and interaction prospect. like students online can raise their hands and ask doubt instead of just typing it in the chatbox.
2. Removing the lecture after a few days (this was there in another institute n it helped me a lot in finishing 130 lectures on time instead of creating backlogs)
3. virtual libraries. I am part of a ypt group that was made from this very community. Long back, dipin sir had also made a spreadsheet where he would punch in n punch out along with students when he used to work. I would say YPT is similar to what sir had intended to do then.
Further zoom meets-based library can be tried (personally haven't done this as could not find anyone I could sync with), . Forum can institute n proctor these sessions based on, say course package for awfg etc. and if someone doesn't study well etc over time they can be dropped out. over time the cohort will become small and focussed. This can emulate the feeling that others are studying, so we should also study and if faculties can also be part of this when they do their work at forum centre (prepping n researching for class) it will boost online students morale and help them deal with isolation.
beyond this as you said, it is a city infra level problem. maybe the recent LG circular for shifting to narela and rohini can be looked into.
