Delhi Schools To Reopen In Phased Manner From September 1

Schools in Delhi will reopen from September 1 for Classes 9-12, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia announced on Friday, adding that students will need parents' permission and no one will be forced to attend the classes, thanks to a hybrid system. An expert committee set up by the DDMA had recommended the phase-wise reopening of the schools from next month. On the show, we speak to students, parents and experts, some say it is not the right time to open schools with the festive season coming up and some feel that it is high time that schools reopened.
