‘No school bag’ on Saturdays in UP government schools

In a bid to take load off students, the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh has decided that Saturdays will be a “no bag day” in all government run primary and secondary schools, an official said.

Students would engage in “joyful activities” and there would be efforts to enhance a positive relationship between the students and teachers on this day, the official said on Saturday.

A go-ahead for this initiative was given by Deputy Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma, who is also the Education Minister. Co-education would also be encourage in these institutions.
