Haryana schools to reopen in July, colleges in August

Chandigarh, June 3

Haryana has decided to start teaching work in schools from July and will reopen colleges and universities from August.

Kanwar Pal Gujjar, Haryana Minister for Education, said that since the Ministry of Home Affairs in its Unlock-I guidelines had permitted reopening of the schools in July, the state government had decided to open them.

“We will reopen schools in a phased manner by starting teaching work for classes 10, 11 and 12 from July 1, for classes 6, 7, 8 and 9 after 15 days and for the primary classes in August. The classes will be held in shifts so that half the students of a class attend the first shift and the rest come in the second. We are yet to decide on the timings of the shifts,” said the minister. — TNS
