Earlier this month, the Government had granted permission for reopening of schools for the students of class nine to twelve and final year college students.
The decision of postponing the reopening of schools and colleges came after the Government announced curfew in Ahmedabad witnessing the steep rise in the COVID cases. The city will undergo curfew from Friday night till Monday morning.
