He said that the people of Maharashtra will defeat the language of hate used by the BJP in the run-up to the state assembly elections.
After giving the nod for offline education for Classes 9 to 11 over a month ago, the Gujarat government on Wednesday announced that the schools will also open for Classes 6 to 8 from September 2 with 50 percent capacity and parents’ approval.
Earlier, with daily Covid-19 cases in the state coming down and after giving permission to colleges, polytechnics, and Class 12 students, the state government had allowed offline education for Classes 9 to 11 from July 26.
Similar to the SOP issued for colleges and polytechnics, and high schools, the primary schools conducting offline education will have to carry out education with a 50 percent capacity and will have to strictly follow the Covid guidelines. The state government has also mandated for the educational institutions to obtain prior consent from the parents of the attending students. The attendance has also been made voluntary.
