According to reports from OTV, the district administrations of Bhadrak and Nabarangpur in the Indian state of Odisha have ordered the closure of all government and private schools, as well as Anganwadi centres, for Thursday, July 30. The decision was prompted by the ongoing flood situation and persistent heavy rainfall affecting the region.
The administrative directive comes as several areas within both districts continue to grapple with the impact of incessant downpours, which have led to rising river levels and concerns over public safety. Local authorities have advised residents to exercise caution as the weather conditions remain volatile.
This closure is part of broader precautionary measures taken by district officials to ensure the safety of students and staff during the monsoon season. The administration continues to monitor the meteorological situation and is expected to provide further updates regarding the reopening of educational institutions based on the evolving weather patterns in the coming days.
