Tirkey said that emergency services would not be hampered by the shutdown.
"We will not disturb schools if they were opened on Thursday," he added.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Soren after over seven hours of questioning on money laundering charges in an alleged land fraud case. Before the arrest, Soren tendered his resignation as the chief minister.
