While Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray gave his go-ahead to the decision, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) issued a circular on Friday stating that all schools under its jurisdiction in Mumbai will continue to remain shut until further notice.

State School Education Minister Varsha Gaikwad said the proposal for reopening schools for classes V to VIII was submitted to the chief minister, which he approved on Friday.
