Members of Telangana Recognised School Managements Association (TRSMA), who participated in the conference, said almost all the school managements in Telangana have taken necessary safety precautions and were ready to open school campuses for children.

“We have to take broader opinion from stakeholders on the issue of reopening of schools. There is also a need for organisations such as World Health Organisation (WHO) to come up with guidelines on school reopening. While cases of Covid have come down, there is always a chance of resurgence of fresh infections,” the Minister said.
