As the temperatures in Punjab continue to rise, the provincial government plans to declare summer holidays for all public and private schools. According to sources, the summer break will likely begin on June 7, 2024, with schools reopening on August 19, 2024.

The decision to close schools for more than two months was intended to safeguard pupils from the blistering heat, which can cause heatstroke, dehydration, and other health problems. Last year, summer vacations began on June 6 and lasted until August 20, 2023.

According to the weather forecast, temperatures in Punjab are projected to rise to 39°C in May 2024 and exceed 40°C in June 2024. The high temperatures have already begun influencing citizens’ daily lives, and the administration is taking steps to limit their impact.
