Noida, January 16: The Gautam Buddh Nagar district administration has ordered all schools from nursery to Class 8 to remain closed on January 16 and 17, 2026, citing the intensification of cold wave conditions and dense fog across the region. The directive, issued by the District Basic Education Officer under the instructions of the District Magistrate, applies to all institutions across Noida and Greater Noida, regardless of board affiliation. While junior classes are suspended, schools for Classes 9 to 12 may continue operating under revised timings, typically from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, to minimize student exposure to early morning freezing temperatures. Officials stated the measure is a precautionary step to safeguard student health as visibility drops and temperatures remain significantly below normal. Parents are advised to stay in contact with school administrations for further updates on reopening schedules.
