Indo Pak Conflict Are schools in your area open or closed today Indo Pak crisis education india pakistan tension

As tensions escalate between India and Pakistan, several states and union territories have taken precautionary measures, including shutting down educational institutions to ensure student safety. India launched swift strikes on multiple Pakistani cities in retaliation to missile and drone attacks attempted by Pakistan in Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Chandigarh.

While no nationwide directive has been issued, local administrations have exercised discretion based on their proximity to the conflict zones.
