The Delhi government, in a previous order on Saturday, extended the winter break till Jan 10 in government-aided and unaided recognised private schools due to the cold wave.
The order came after the India Meteorological Department issued a 'yellow alert' over the cold weather condition.
Hours after the order, the government retracted it and a fresh announcement came this morning.
