Chennai, May 31 (BPNS)
Tamil Nadu School education department has announced that the schools in the state will reopen after summer holidays on June 10th only instead of June 6th.
While the officials did not specify the reason for the postponement of the school reopening, the rising summer heat in many districts have led to the department postponing the reopening date.
The Union Territory of Puducherry has already announced the postponement date to June 12.
Former Union Minister and Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha), GK Vasan who is also the president of the Tamil Manila Congress (Moopanar) has already called on the Tamil Nadu government to postpone the school reopening date. He said that many parts of Tamil Nadu were facing scorching heat and students must be protected from this by postponing the school reopening day by a week.
