Last year, the schools were closed for about nine months, and now again the schools are closed continuously since January 5. Staff and children have also been vaccinated in our schools. When everything is open, why are the schools closed."Jagdeep Kaur, a parent, said, "Studying on mobile phones is affecting the eyes of the children badly. My son is also not doing well in his studies. That's why we want schools to open. Election rallies are being held, but the schools are closed."Sweety Sharma, a teacher, said, "The government is not giving us any platform or facilities for online classes and the platform which we have is also being taken away from us.
