Meanwhile, after an 11-day closure due to heavy rains, flash floods, and landslides, the Directorate of School Education Jammu has issued a directive for all government and private schools in the region to gear up for reopening. Offline classes are expected to resume from September 10, pending safety clearance.

In an official notice, the Directorate instructed all Heads of Institutions (HOIs) and staff to report for duty starting September 8 (Monday). A mandatory security and safety audit of school buildings has been ordered to ensure the infrastructure is safe for students to return.

The move comes as the region recovers from severe weather disruptions that began on August 26, causing widespread damage and forcing school closures. The administration is now focused on restoring normalcy while prioritising student safety.
