After several back-to-back holidays, students across Punjab were confused about whether educational institutions would reopen or remain closed. Social media discussions and holiday extensions in some areas created uncertainty, but authorities have now made the situation completely clear. All schools across Punjab will open tomorrow according to the normal schedule, and regular academic activities will resume without delay.
Why So Many People Were Confused
The confusion started because of multiple holidays coming together.

The Punjab government had earlier approved a local holiday in Lahore to facilitate Basant celebrations, aiming to manage traffic and ensure public safety. Meanwhile, Kashmir solidarity observances led to a nationwide public holiday. Weekend days were already scheduled, which is how the break extended to four days in total.
Leadership had encouraged citizens to use the long weekend for rest and recreation, but now routine educational activities are officially back.
Why This Update Is Important
Many parents delayed academic preparation assuming schools might stay closed. However:
- Transport services will operate normally
- Exams or class tests may resume
- Attendance shortages could affect students
Relying only on verified announcements is important instead of social media rumors.
