Authorities concerned in any district can shut down schools in case the temperature drops below 10 de-grees Celsius, said the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) in a circular on Tuesday.
According to the circular, “A cold wave is sweeping different parts of the country and as a result the educational activities are being seriously hampered. The regional deputy directors in consultation with the district education officers can keep the educational institutions under secondary level shut if the tem-perature drops below 10 degrees Celsius in any district.”
The institutions which will be shut due to low temperature will remain closed until the temperature rises above 10 degrees Celsius.
