No plans to reopen schools in Delhi as of now, says Kejriwal

Friday, 16 July 2021 | Staff Reporter | NEW DELHI

Amid the potential threat of an imminent third wave, schools in Delhi will not be opening yet, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced on Thursday. The Chief Minister said the Government had no plans for reopening of schools in the national Capital as of now.

“Like we are seeing trends internationally that there will be a third wave of Covid-19. So, until the vaccination process is complete we would not like to take risks with children. So there aren’t any plans to reopen schools as of now,” Kejriwal said. The news comes despite a dip in the Covid positivity rate in the national Capital.

The CM was responding to a question about whether schools in Delhi will begin to reopen like in other States. The announcement came amid the easing of Covid-19 norms this month.
