Schools and colleges in the state will be opened after a gap of eight months.
They had remained closed since March this year following the lockdown due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The state government had also introduced the concept of neighbourhood classes in schools, where teachers taught a group of students outside the classroom.
These neighbourhood classes were soon suspended following criticism by the public.
The state government had also ordered that 50 per cent of teachers should be present every day in the schools from October 15.
Students of classes IX to XII were also allowed to attend schools with prior permission from their parents.
