Schools in Islamabad and Rawalpindi, both public and private, will reopen tomorrow (Thursday) after a three-day closure due to a protest organized by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi announced after police cleared the protest area of PTI supporters. Mobile internet services will be back up and running by Wednesday morning, and schools will be open tomorrow, Thursday, according to Naqvi.
Schools have been closed since Saturday because of the PTI’s planned protest on November 24. Parents are worried about how the chaos will affect their children’s education.
Frustrated parents in the Twin Cities voiced their concerns about the negative impact on their children’s academic performance caused by the prolonged closure. While some schools used online classes as an alternative, many parents felt they were unsuitable, especially for younger pupils, as compared to in-person schooling.
On Wednesday morning, all roadblocks were removed, and life returned to normal in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Deputy Commissioner Irfan Memon of Islamabad has ordered the assistant commissioners to restore the city’s functionality by cleaning up important crossings and ensuring that all roads are reopened immediately.
