Yuva Sena, the student wing of Shiv Sena, has written to the school education department not to hold exams during the Ganeshotsav next month.
Most schools may have their unit or semester exams online next month. With the festival to be held from September 10-19, the Sena wrote to school education minister Varsha Gaikwad, stating that students are likely to travel to their villages for the festival. Schools are expected to be closed for five days during the Ganesh festival.
The state is still to issue any circular on school closure during the Ganesh festival.
