Islamabad: Academic life has returned as schools, colleges and universities across Pakistan reopened today under strict Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), after a gap of nearly three months amid second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.

Federal minister of education, Shafqat Mahmood turned to twitter on Sunday night and wished students all the best for academic activities.

The decision to reopen the schools were taken after the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC), had a detailed discussion with all stakeholders and decided that educational institutions shall resume all remaining classes at the primary, middle and university level on February 1.
Today, Pakistan has witnessed a decline in coronavirus deaths for the second successive day as it reported 26 coronavirus deaths and 1,615 new positive cases in the last 24 hours.
