“In view of the above, all schools of the district Gautam Buddha Nagar are directed to adhere to action enlisted under Stage IV of Graded Response Action Plan. Accordingly, it is directed that all schools shall discontinue physical classes from pre-school to Class 12th till November 23 and conduct classes in online mode only,” district magistrate directed.
