Winter vacations extended in Punjab for Prep and nursery

Punjab Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi has extended winter vacations for nursery and prep students until January 19, 2024, due to severe cold weather. This decision follows 36 children in Punjab succumbing to pneumonia in early January. Contrary to rumors, the extension is specific to nursery and prep classes, with a ban on school assemblies until January 31. Naqvi dismissed rumors of a wider extension for grades 1 to 10, emphasizing the importance of warm clothing for students.
