Delhi schools switch to hybrid mode amid protest-related disruptions.
New Delhi:

Several schools in central Delhi have either shifted to hybrid classes or made changes in transport arrangements owing traffic curbs and metro restrictions in the wake of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest.

R S Junior Modern School on Humayun Road has informed parents that classes from Nursery to Class 5 will be conducted in the hybrid mode, both physical and online, from July 24 until further notice, citing the "ongoing situation in Central Delhi".

Students attending classes from home have been asked to follow the regular timetable and join classes via Microsoft Teams, while wearing the school uniform, according to a circular.

The school said its buses would operate as per the regular schedule.

Sardar Patel Vidyalaya in Lodhi Estate, which conducted online classes on Tuesday and Wednesday, has informed parents that regular physical classes will resume on Thursday.

The school said buses would ply on the usual routes and as per regular timings.

However, the institution advised parents of students living in areas affected by traffic restrictions to coordinate with school transport staff and collect their wards either from the school campus or from designated points ahead, as buses may be diverted for safety reasons.

The developments come as several roads in central Delhi remain affected due to security arrangements around the protest site, while multiple Delhi Metro stations remained closed for several hours, leading to congestion and delays for commuters.
