In light of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, resulting in the closure of educational institutions in Kashmir, numerous schools have transitioned to online classes to safeguard students' academic progress.
Faced with ongoing conflict and the shutdown of schools since May 7 due to India's missile strikes on Pakistani territories, leading private schools in the region initiated virtual classrooms on Friday.
Parents like Saba Bhat commend this measure, explaining that it allows children to continue their studies without risking safety. Meanwhile, public school educators, like Mushtaq Ahmad, urge similar arrangements to be made in government institutions to ensure equal academic opportunities.
