As December unfolds, Indian schools are contending with a volatile mix of weather disruptions and administrative challenges. Coastal areas are experiencing lingering effects from Cyclone Ditwah, with scattered rainfall and gusty winds impacting operations. While no widespread holidays were declared for December 10th, many districts remain weather-sensitive, leaving schools to decide on partial closures or altered timings based on local conditions.
In Maharashtra, the Marathwada belt faces ongoing disruptions due to a teachers' strike, affecting class operations on December 10th. In contrast, schools in major urban centers like Mumbai are expected to function normally. Meanwhile, numerous hill districts are already under scheduled closure until December 14th due to severe cold-wave conditions, dense fog, and early snowfall, prioritizing student safety over regular schooling.
