The state government also asked the concerned authorities to ensure proper sanitization of the schools, providing drinking water facilities before the students attend their classes. "We would also announce their results before resuming the classes," education minister Ratan Lal Nath.
There are 4,398 government and its aided schools and 335 private schools in the state.
