Bhubaneswar, 21 April (H.S.): In view of the prevailing heatwave conditions, the district administration of Bolangir has extended the closure of schools, colleges, and Anganwadi centres for an additional four days, from April 22 to April 25.

Despite the suspension of physical classes, authorities have put measures in place to ensure that academic activities continue without disruption. Teachers and lecturers have been directed to conduct online classes during this period to keep pace with the academic schedule. They have also been instructed to report to their respective institutions and deliver virtual lessons from there.

For Anganwadi centres, the administration has introduced a temporary modification in the distribution of nutrition. Instead of serving cooked meals at the centres, Anganwadi workers will provide dry ration supplies to children at their homes.

The administration further clarified that examinations scheduled during this period will be conducted as per the existing timetable, with no changes.
