Why are schools closed on November 11, 2025?

Authorities have cited three main reasons behind the extended closures in certain states:

1. Elections:
   In constituencies where by-elections or assembly polls are being held, schools designated as polling stations will remain closed to facilitate smooth voting.
2. Weather-related concerns:
   Some regions are still experiencing the after-effects of Cyclone Montha and heavy rains. Although most schools have reopened, a few have been shut as a precautionary measure.
3. Local festivals and holidays:
   Certain districts are observing regional festivals or administrative holidays, prompting temporary school closures.

Telangana: Schools shut for Jubilee Hills by-election

In Telangana, the government has officially declared a holiday on November 11 for all schools, colleges, and government offices within the Jubilee Hills Assembly constituency, where a by-election is scheduled to take place.
