As per the orders issued by Kangra District Commissioner Hemraj Bairwa, all Sub-Divisional Magistrates (SDMs) and Deputy Directors (Education) have been instructed to ensure compliance with these new timings. Any school that fails to adhere to these regulations will be subject to appropriate action, as per the relevant rules.
This decision is aimed at providing relief to students and teachers from the scorching heat, which has been severe in the region lately. By starting school earlier… students will have more time to reside in their homes or under shaded areas, “minimizing their exposure to direct sunlight.” Similarly, “the shorter school day will also help reduce the energy expended by teachers and staff.” With this move, the district administration is demonstrating its commitment to prioritizing the well-being of students and staff… ensuring that they remain safe and healthy during this challenging period.
The revised timings will remain in effect until further orders are issued by the district administration. This information is courtesy of Tribuneindia News Service.
