The School Education Department wanted schools to reopen in the beginning of June in order to complete the syllabus. However the schools are facing acute water shortage. While some schools have resorted to working only for half a day, others are considering working on alternate days.

The school managements say that even though they are prepared to shell out money and buy water in tankers, the tankers are not available everyday but only once in few days. The associations have approached the department officials for a solution but till date nothing concrete has been found. Some schools have instructed students to carry at least two bottles of water and have even cancelled PT classes. There are schools on the outskirts who don’t have enough water even for the toilets. The Parent Teacher Associations have requested the government to suggest a viable solution.
