Which law will apply in the district? Whose command will ultimately prevail in the district? Who will be proud in the district? The answers to these questions are visible in the government primary and middle schools of Patna. Citing the order of the Additional Chief Secretary of the Education Department, the Director of Secondary Education had ordered the District Education Officer of Patna to open primary and middle schools also. On the other hand, the District Magistrate of Patna had termed this as a violation of Section 144 issued by his order. Meaning, according to the Education Department, schools were opened, whereas in view of the threat to life in winter, the DM’s order was to close the schools.

When the team of ‘Amar Ujala’ went out to inspect the schools of Patna on Tuesday morning amidst dense fog and temperature of around nine degrees, they were surprised. There was commotion in the school but the children were missing. Upon enquiry, it was found that teachers had come to the school but the children had not. That is, the teachers followed the orders of the District Education Officer and reached school in the harsh cold. The children followed the orders of Patna DM Dr. Chandrashekhar Singh. Some parents said that sending children to school in the harsh morning cold is no less than a big danger. If health is good then children will not even study. Parents supported the decision of Patna DM and said that his decision is absolutely right. Keeping in mind the health of the children, he has ordered the closure of schools up to class eight.
