Schools in Bolivia will return to in-person classes on Monday, with biosecurity measures in place to avoid the spread of Covid-19, Deputy Minister of Education Bartolome Puma announced.

On February 1, most Bolivian schools began the year with a mixture of distance, face-to-face and hybrid learning, reports Xinhua news agency.

Minister of Education Edgar Pary said that schools had gradually begun to return to face-to-face learning, with a full return expected on Monday.

The Health and Sports Ministry said it plans to send medical teams to schools to ensure the enforcement of sanitary measures and offer testing and vaccination to students. IANS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
