The Rajasthan State Government is planning to reopen schools for secondary, senior secondary and higher educational institutes in the state from January 2021. The State Education Department has sent a detailed proposal to the government which is under review and will be implemented once the government approves the same.

According to a proposal floated by the education department, classes 9 to 12 on a trial basis will resume in the first week of January 2021 for 15 days and a decision about the further reopening of schools might be taken after reviewing the same.

Major universities including Delhi University, Jamia Millia Islamia, IGNOU are expected to open for physical classes in 2021. While state universities that have started physical classes for selected practical courses have announced to hold physical sessions for other courses as well. On the other hand, in the wake of upcoming board examinations, some states have allowed school administration to conduct classes. States including Bihar, Odisha, Delhi, Karnataka, Puducherry, Assam and Pune will resume physical classes in schools from January 2021 onward.

Schools and PU colleges will reopen on January 1 for students of classes 10 and 12 as scheduled, the Department of Primary and Secondary Education has said. Schools will be opened after a span of nine-and-a-half months.

Though the government had announced the date earlier this month, because of the emergence of a new strain of the coronavirus in the U.K., department officials were in a dilemma on whether the reopening should be as per schedule. The State government had then stepped up its monitoring mechanism and was screening all passengers who were arrivitng from the U.K.

Getting ready for its mass inoculation drives, India today began a four day dry run for covid-19 vaccine. Apart from this, the country’s infection rate has also steadily dropped and recovery per cent has crossed the 95% mark for most of the states. For many, the life has returned to normal or as normal as can be in a world with COVID-19. And yet, even as people step out, parents are vary of sending the children back to schools in India.

Karnataka Education Minister S Suresh Kumar on Monday announced that regular classes for students of Classes 10 and 12 will commence from January 1, 2021. The state had earlier decided to reopen regular classes for Class 10, second pre-university and Vidyagama programme for government school students from Class 6 to Class 9 from January 1.

Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar said, “From January 1, classes will resume. There have been speculations, but whatever programmes we have planned from January 1 will go on.”
