Himachal To Shut Schools Again After Students, Teachers Test COVID Positive

Just a week after Himachal Pradesh allowed the reopening of schools, the state authorities are considering to close them again after a large number of teachers and students contracted COVID-19. The Education Department has asked the schools reopened for grade 9-11 to submit the details of positive cases. However, the decision will be taken after cabinet meeting in absence of Education Minister Govind Thakur, who also has tested COVID-19 positive.
