Keeping in view of these aspects, the Manipur Government is now reviewing the order issued on Tuesday that asserted on reopening of classes from 9th standard and above from November 10.
According to Hindu report, at least 17 students, especially the ones staying in private hostels of Churachandpur district have been tested COVID-19 positive, that stood as a major cause of concern for the authorities.
Its pertinent to note that some hostels and private schools in the hilly regions earlier reopened, without receiving any approval from the Government.
