This step comes amid warnings issued by the India Meteorological Department (IMD), which has predicted continued extreme heat conditions in the region. The early declaration of holidays will apply to schools across all districts of Punjab.
Parents, students, and educational institutions have been advised to take note of the revised summer break schedule and make necessary arrangements accordingly. Further instructions, if any, are expected to be communicated by the Department of School Education.
The health and safety of children remain the top priority during this period of intense weather.
