Decision to open schools too early, measures too little: Suri 6/2/2020 9:53:41 PM EARLY TIMES REPORT JAMMU, June 2: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) J&K Executive Member Raman Suri today said that the decision of Government to open schools in Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir is too early and the measures being adopted are too little. He urged Government to review its decision in this context and ensure complete safety of students and teachers before allowing them into schools. Suri said that usage of sanitizers alone cannot help unless safe distance is maintained at the time of entering schools as well as inside the premises including classrooms, playground and staff room. There are several schools which do not have much number of classrooms besides adequate size of classrooms, where children can be made to sit at a distance from each other. He said that otherwise also, this is the time when most of the schools observe summer holidays. Now, when teachers had been taking online classes which, as per the Government, are going on absolutely right, there is no need of reopening schools at this stage when it is time for summer vacations. He said, continuing with its efficiency, the Government must focus on online education or e-learning for school, college as well as university goers rather than reopening these institutions. Just as schools functioned from 8 am-2 pm, and had around 40 minutes periods with proper time table, similarly online classes should be organised during school hours, which should follow proper time table and timings. There is a panic amongst parents as well as children due to schools’ reopening decision. There are several government as well as private schools are not having enough infrastructure to ensure proper safety of the children and teachers in current COVID-19 crisis. Suri urged the Government not to rush through things and do first things first.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
