Educational institutions across Islamabad and Rawalpindi have reopened following weeks of closure due to political unrest and security concerns. Students and parents welcomed the decision as academic schedules had been severely disrupted. Authorities had previously ordered the shutdown as a precautionary measure during mass protests, which caused widespread disruptions across the twin cities.
The reopening comes after an improvement in the overall security situation, with local administrations ensuring additional safety measures at schools and colleges. Law enforcement agencies are maintaining a vigilant presence in sensitive areas to prevent any unexpected incidents.
Teachers and students alike expressed relief, noting the importance of regaining academic momentum before year-end assessments.
Many parents had voiced concerns about the prolonged closure, fearing a negative impact on their children’s education. Several institutions are now implementing adjusted schedules to cover the missed syllabus.
Meanwhile, education officials have stressed the importance of ensuring that such disruptions do not recur in the future, emphasizing the role of dialogue in resolving political differences peacefully
