School Holidays Delhi, Haryana Schools Start Their Winter Break Today

Delhi's schools will be closed for the winter starting today, January 1, 2024. The winter break will go through January 6. Delhi schools now only have six days off this year instead of the previous fifteen. This is because the national capital's extreme air pollution forced a section of the winter vacation to be rescheduled from November 9 to November 18. "Nevertheless, a portion of winter vacation was observed from November 9 to November 18 to ensure that our students are not adversely affected due to the poor air quality in Delhi," the Department of Education stated.Additionally, the state of Haryana has stated that all public and private schools in the state will be closed for winter break beginning today. The state's schools will be closed from January 1 to January 15 for a total of 15 days. "The Haryana government has announced winter vacation from January 1 to January 15, 2024 in all government and private schools of the state," the Haryana Chief Minister's Office had stated, citing the growing cold.

There will be ample time for students to study for the exams, which are scheduled for February and March of 2024. Schools will reopen in the second week if the weather clears up. In the event that this doesn't occur, holidays will continue until January 14, 2024.
