Schools will remain closed in northeast Delhi till March 7 in view of the violence, officials said on Saturday as reported by news agency PTI.
The annual exams have also been postponed since the situation is not conducive for conducting examinations in violence-affected areas, according to officials.
CBSE, which is currently in the middle of holding its annual board exams, had also postponed exams for students whose exam centre was located in this district. The exams which were scheduled till February 29 were postponed and the board said it will notify new exam dates soon.
The Board also took cognizance of students whose exam centres were not in the violence-affected area but were unable to travel to their exam centres because of the situation in Northeast Delhi and has directed schools to send list of such students.
"Therefore keeping the future interests of the students in mind, the board has asked the principals to send the details to concerned regional offices of CBSE of all such students of Class X and XII who have missed out on the exams so far in Delhi, due to these difficult conditions," the CBSE notice said.
