Maharashtra to reopen schools today, Pune to keep shut due to rising Covid-19 cases

Amid a declining number of daily Covid-19 cases, Maharashtra will today (January 24, 2022) reopen schools for Classes 1 to 9 for offline classroom sessions.

“Our SOPs are very strict and clear. We have given four days of advance notice to the management of schools to undertake vaccination and sanitisation and for preparation of time-table. The timing and other necessary decisions will be taken by the local authorities, such as district collector or municipal commissioner based on the local situations,” Maharashtra Education Minister.
