The final guidelines for opening schools will be announced within five days. The draft notification has been issued. The public and parents can comment through PTA and youth meetings. The consent of the parents to send the children will be ensured.”We have received several suggestions such as classes on a shift basis and one batch a week. Meetings will be convened at the district and school levels.
