Noida School Closing News Today: All schools from classes 1 to 12 in Noida and Greater Noida will remain shut from July 31 for Kanwar Yatra. However, the Gautam Buddha Nagar district administration said the classes will resume after August 2, 2024. The decision from the district administration came after the Ghaziabad district administration took a similar decision.
The closures of schools in Noida were declared due to the influx of Kanwariyas in huge numbers from Haridwar. Reports suggest that about 1.25 crore Kanwariyas from Haridwar and other ghats have left for their destinations carrying Gangajal.
The Gautam Buddha Nagar district administration said schools in Noida have been directed to strictly comply with the orders and classes will run as usual through virtual mode. However classes will remain closed on August 2.
The order from the Gautam Buddha Nagar district administration said: “In view of the Kanwar Yatra, due to the instructions given by the District Magistrate, all the schools of all the boards of classes 1 to 12 of the district will not operate physically on 31.07.2024 and 01.08.2024 (Wednesday and Thursday).”
After the order was issued, many private schools in Noida and Greater Noida sent notices to students and parents with schedules for online classes on Tuesday.
For the Kanwar Yatra, strict traffic diversions have been put in place at several places in Noida and the city traffic police reserved two of four lanes from Okhla Bird Sanctuary to Okhla Barrage for the devotees carrying Kanwars and restricted traffic to two lanes till August 4.
