According to a statement issued here, he was accompanied by Deputy CEO Jammu (HQ Akhnoor), Sardar Harjeet Singh.

The recent rains and floods caused damage to school infrastructure across Jammu and Kashmir, prompting a thorough review to ensure the safe resumption of classes and continuity of learning.

The CEO interacted with Heads of Institutions and staff members, issuing on-the-spot directions to address safety, infrastructure and academic concerns.

At HSS Jhiri, the Head of Institution was instructed to conduct classes only in the safe portions of the building, with repairs to be carried out immediately and a safety certificate obtained before reopening the affected portions.

At HSS Pallanwalan, where part of the school building is being used as a camp for border migrants, the CEO directed the management to make suitable arrangements to ensure smooth functioning of classes in the remaining portion of the premises.
