In response to heavy rainfall and widespread flooding, the Tripura government has announced the closure of all educational institutions, effective immediately. The decision, announced by Chief Minister Manik Saha on X (formerly Twitter), applies to all schools, colleges, and state-run universities, including government, government-aided, and private institutions. The closure will remain in effect until further notice.
The government’s decision prioritizes the safety of students and staff amidst the challenging weather conditions. The floods have caused significant disruption in Tripura, with many areas experiencing heavy rainfall and rising water levels. The closure of schools aims to protect students from potential risks associated with the flooding and allow for the safe resumption of educational activities once conditions improve.
