The administration, in its order, had said schools, colleges, higher educational institutions and technical or skill institutions will reopen from February 1.
These shall be “physically opened in a staggered manner” for academic activities for Class 9 to Class 12 with effect from February 1,” said the order issued by B K Singh, Administrative Secretary, School Education Department.
