Info: Schools and Colleges are going for extended break due to festival season which is going around.

Multiple states in India are experiencing disruptions in regular routines due to a confluence of festival holidays and weather-related closures. 

The upcoming Milad un-Nabi/Id-e-Milad holiday is expected to lead to the closure of schools and colleges across various regions until Monday, September 16. Although an official notice is still pending, both government and private institutions are anticipated to observe the long weekend. 

Given that many schools already have Saturdays off, students could potentially enjoy a three-day break from September 14 to 15, followed by an additional holiday on September 16. Parents and students are advised to confirm the exact holiday schedule with their respective schools.

Heavy rainfall has further exacerbated the situation in several states, resulting in school closures. Madhya Pradesh , particularly in Gwalior, has been grappling with incessant rain, causing rivers and streams to overflow. In response, the state government has issued notices to keep schools closed in several districts, including Bhopal, Bhind, Sagar, Shivpuri, and Ashok Nagar. 

With a heavy rain alert in place for the next two days, authorities are urging people to exercise caution. Neighboring Chhattisgarh is facing a similar situation, as relentless rains continue to disrupt daily life.

In Rajasthan , government employees are set to enjoy a four-day break in the second week of September. In addition to the Milad un-Nabi holiday, employees in Banswara district will receive a local holiday on September 17 for Anant Chaturdashi. The extended break also coincides with the celebration of Ramdev Jayanti, making it a festive period for many.

The combination of festival holidays and weather-related closures is impacting normal routines in multiple states. Authorities recommend that residents in affected areas stay informed about weather conditions and school schedules to ensure safety and avoid inconvenience.
