In light of the ongoing heavy rains, a holiday has been declared for schools and colleges in several districts of Tamil Nadu today. The continuous downpour has led to the closure of educational institutions for the second consecutive day in Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kanchipuram, Chengalpattu, and Ranipet districts.
Additionally, the district collectors have announced holidays for schools in Thiruvannamalai, Salem, Kallakurichi, Villupuram, Cuddalore, Krishnagiri, and Dharmapuri districts.
Moreover, the government has issued an order for a holiday in non-essential government departments in Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kanchipuram, and Chengalpattu districts. However, essential services will continue to operate as usual, ensuring that critical functions are not disrupted. Shops and commercial establishments are expected to remain open as usual tomorrow, despite the adverse weather conditions.
Authorities are continuously monitoring the weather situation and will issue further updates if necessary. Citizens are advised to stay updated on the latest weather advisories and take necessary precautions to stay safe.
