Several educational institutions in Delhi shift classes online and postpone exams and in-person activities scheduled for Saturday, citing security concerns ahead of a planned October 10 protest. Outlets report that schools are cancelling or rescheduling components of their day-to-day programmes, including in-person sessions.
Reports also link the decision to expected disruption in the city’s public transport and policing around the protest route. Some schools discontinue specific student facilities and postpone planned events, while others reschedule parent-teacher meetings. In higher education, institutions including engineering colleges postpone examinations, with disruptions to metro services cited as a factor. Coverage varies by institution, but the overall pattern across outlets is the same: in-person schooling and Saturday assessments are adjusted to reduce risk and logistical problems.
