Earlier in the day, National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) chief Asad Umar Tuesday announced that the government is reopening schools in five districts of Punjab and one district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, from September 16. 

The NCOC had earlier placed strict restrictions on 24 districts across the country.

Out of these, strict restrictions will only be imposed in six districts while the rest have been allowed relaxation.

A day earlier the Inter-Provincial Education Ministers’ meeting decided to pass all students of Class 10 and 12.
