The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has allowed Anganwadis and playschools in its jurisdiction to reopen from 8 November in compliance with all Covid-19 safety protocols, the civic body said on Saturday.
“In the first phase, it will open for two hours from 10 am to 12 pm. Parents who send their children to playschools should be fully vaccinated,” it added.
The Karnataka government had allowed the resumption of offline classes for students of standard 1 to 5 from 25 October, strictly adhering to Covid-19 appropriate behaviour and SOPs issued by the Department of Primary and Secondary Education.
The government re-opened schools for students of classes 6 to 8 from 6 September and for students of classes 9 to 12 from 23 August.
The state also on Friday withdrew the Covid-induced night curfew imposed from 10 pm to 5 am.
The night curfew was imposed from 3 July onwards at the end of the two-month lockdown when the second wave hit the state.
