Schools from classes 6 to 8 have been re-opened in Uttar Pradesh from today. However, schools from classes 6 to 8 were scheduled to be re-opened from Monday itself. But due to the death of former Chief Minister Kalyan Singh, Monday was declared as a public holiday. Due to this, the schools of these three classes are now opening from today.
