Winter Vacation Announced In Schools In Delhi And These States Due To Cold

With cold wave gripping the country, several states have issued instructions to declare holidays for the students.

Following a snowfall in the mountains, the plains are now experiencing a spell of cool and chilly weather. According to the weather department, on Friday, the maximum temperature remained at 23 degrees, while the minimum temperature dropped to 6.2 degrees. Other states also witnessed a decline in temperatures, leading to the declaration of winter vacations in schools in several regions. Recently, the governments of Jharkhand and Punjab issued notices for winter vacations in schools due to the cold wave. Additionally, Rajasthan, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi have also announced the dates for winter vacations.

Delhi government has declared winter vacations in all private and government schools from January 1 to January 6, 2024. This year, Delhi schools will observe a short winter break of only six days. This decision comes in light of air pollution concerns in the national capital, prompting the early declaration of winter vacations in November.
