Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) today said Jashore, Kushtia, Chuadanga, Pabna, Rajshahi, Bagerghat and Satkhira have been experiencing extreme hot weather as a "very severe" heatwave is sweeping over the districts
Reopening schools and madrasas despite a heat alert was a poor decision
The ongoing heatwave has made day-to-day life difficult for all, with the government initially taking steps to protect schoolchildren from heat-related illnesses
The reopening of educational institutions amid the heatwave was marred by two teachers’ deaths and dozens of students becoming sick.
All primary and secondary schools, as well as colleges, reopened today after a long break that included the Eid-ul-Fitr and Pahela Baishakh holidays, and a week off due to the ongoing heatwave
As primary and secondary schools, along with colleges, reopen today, parents are expressing concerns about the scorching heat and its potential impact on their children’s health.
Respite from the prevailing heatwave condition across the country is unlikely and it has turned "very severe" in three districts
No assembly until heatwave reaches a tolerable level
The government today decided to reopen secondary schools, colleges, madrasas, and technical education institutions and asked the authorities concerned to resume regular classes and activities in those institutes from Sunday amid the ongoing heatwave
