Patna: Although Patna DM Chandrashekhar Singh was transferred on Friday evening, but while leaving, he once again issued a new order for the schools of Patna till January 31. It is difficult to say whether it is love for children or bullying by bureaucracy. By the way, KK Pathak, Additional Chief Secretary of the Education Department, had last time expressed his displeasure over such closure of schools. Even after this, once again Patna DM issued a new notice due to cold and cold wave.
Kept challenging even after transfer
In Bihar, two IAS officers brought warmth to the bureaucracy in the shivering cold. Eventually, Patna DM Chandrashekhar Singh was transferred. Last time also he had challenged KK Pathak. Kept challenging even after transfer.
Actually, KK Pathak had ordered that there will be no holiday in schools due to cold. Despite the orders of Additional Chief Secretary of Education Department KK Pathak, Patna DM Chandrashekhar Singh declared holidays in schools. Instructions were issued to keep schools closed till 23 January. Now even after transfer the notice was issued.
This was written in the order to close the school
The notice issued by the Patna district administration said that cold weather and low temperatures continue in the district, especially in the morning and evening hours, due to which the health and life of children is likely to be adversely affected. Therefore, I, Dr. Chandrashekhar Singh, District Magistrate, Patna, under Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, have issued a notice to ban educational activities for all classes in all private/government schools (including pre-schools, Anganwadi centers and coaching centers) of Patna district. I impose a ban before 9 am and after 3.30 pm. The school management is directed to reschedule the academic activities as per the order mentioned above. Operation of special classes with adequate precautions for mission efficiency and board exams will remain free from this. This order will come into effect from January 27, which will remain effective till January 31.
