The Meghalaya government has added 14 days to the ongoing special intensive revision programme, citing recent disruptions in Shillong that affected student study sessions.
The state administration announced that the special intensive revision schedule for students will be prolonged by an additional fourteen days. The decision comes after a series of disruptions in Shillong that interrupted the regular revision sessions, prompting concerns among educators and learners.
Authorities said the extension aims to ensure that students receive the full complement of study time originally planned, especially those preparing for upcoming examinations. The revised timetable will now cover the original period plus the added two weeks, allowing schools and coaching centres to adjust their calendars accordingly.
The move has been welcomed by parents and teachers who feared that the earlier interruptions could compromise academic performance. The education department has urged institutions to communicate the updated schedule to all stakeholders promptly.
No further details on the nature of the Shillong disruptions were released, but officials emphasized that the extension reflects a commitment to maintaining educational continuity despite unforeseen challenges.
