Red Alert Background: The region expects continuous heavy downpours accompanied by strong winds from July 7, 2026, extending for the next two days. The precautionary measure has been taken by the District Disaster Management Authority to prevent any untoward incidents and mitigate potential risks to young children traveling to educational institutions.

The Deputy Directors of the Department of Public Instruction and the Department of Women and Child Development have been strictly directed to implement the order. The administration also noted that the loss of academic classes due to this emergency leave must be compensated for by adjusting working days in the subsequent weeks.
