He further stated that all the teachers who have been given COVID duty, will be able to avail summer vacations only after taking permission from the District Collector/ SDM.

All teachers have been asked to stay alert during the course of summer vacations, as they can be asked to work by the district administration in case of an emergency situation.

Earlier, Ashok Gehlot, Chief Minister of Rajasthan, postponed the board examinations for the students of Classes 10 and 12 due to the increase in COVID infections in the state. The government also announced direct promotion for the students of Classes 8, 9, and 11, reported NDTV.
