JAIPUR: The state government on Friday announced reopening schools for classes 10 and 12 in urban areas from February 1. Classes from 6 to 9 will begin from February 10.
The decision is applicable to both private and government schools. The state has also relaxed certain restrictions with effect from February 1.
The weekend curfew, from 11pm Saturday to Monday 5am, has been dropped giving major relief to businesses and the hospitality industry. Also, malls/businesses/shops will remain open till 10pm for the whole week, including Sundays. There has been a demand by market associations to keep shops open till 10pm as it is the tourist and wedding season.
A new rule has been included by the state directing all establishments/companies/departments/offices to put up a notice detailing the number of vaccinated and unvaccinated employees. Considering the role of fairs/festivals/Urs in generating employment and revenue, they will be allowed following Covid protocol. Hundred people will be allowed for social, political, sports, entertainment, educational, cultural and religious programmes. The organisers of such functions will have to inform DoIT in advance or intimate authorities by calling 181.
