Due to the expected heavy rain, the government of Sindh decided to close all schools in the province for Friday. This decision was made in response to warnings from the Pakistan Meteorological Department about bad weather, including rain, strong winds, and possibly hailstorms, from February 29 to March 2.
The Sindh School Education and Literacy Department officially announced the cancellation of evening classes in both public and private schools to ensure the safety of students and staff during the expected harsh weather.
