The Balochistan government has decided to extend the closure of schools and other educational institutions until March 31. The move is in line with steps being taken at the national level as authorities continue to review the situation.
Special Assistant to the Chief Minister, Shahid Rind, said the situation is being monitored closely, and further decisions will be made when needed. He also advised parents to make sure their children continue studying at home during this period.
In Punjab, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz also announced that all schools and educational institutions will remain closed until March 31.
The decision has been taken due to the regional conflict and the ongoing petroleum crisis. However, exams will be held as scheduled, and schools can arrange online classes while campuses remain closed.
