Delhi School Reopening News: Delhi’s schools and colleges will reopen from Monday, November 29.

However, the court also said, “If the situation improves, then lift some restrictions.” Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai told reporters this afternoon, “The air quality in Delhi is improving now. Schools, Colleges and educational institutions will reopen from Monday.”

Earlier, the Delhi government had lifted the ban on construction and demolition (C&D) activities across the capital, citing improvement in air quality. Gopal Rai, however, said on Wednesday that construction activities would be temporarily halted if any violations are found at the sites.
