LAHORE: All educational institutions in Punjab will remain open as usual on Thursday.
Punjab Education Minister Rana Sikandar Hayat said that no decision has been taken to extend the school holidays nor has any official notification been issued yet.
He clarified that educational activities will continue as usual on Thursday and the notification circulating on social media regarding the holidays is fake.
Meanwhile, the Specialized Healthcare Department has also issued a notification stating that all government and private medical colleges in Punjab will remain open on Thursday, and educational activities including examinations will proceed as per the schedule.
It is worth mentioning that a day ago, a temporary closure was announced in educational institutions due to emergency situations following attacks by India in various districts.
