Patna District Magistrate Dr. S.M. Tyagarajan issued a new order to deal with the falling temperatures. As per the directive, all government and private schools up to Class 8 must start only after 8:30 a.m. Classes will continue until 4:00 p.m. This step aims to protect students from the severe early-morning cold.

The DM explained that the district has been experiencing very low temperatures, which may affect children’s health. To avoid any risk, the new schedule will remain in effect from December 11 to December 18.

The Meteorological Department has forecasted fog in parts of South Bihar, including Patna, but afternoons may see some sunshine. The weather is expected to stay dry for the next week, with no major change in temperature levels during the next few days.

Now, the first class in schools will not start before 8 am. The order was sent to all headmasters and private school operators so they follow the new timings from Tuesday. Cold winds blowing at 15–20 km/h across the state, including Patna, are making mornings and evenings even colder. Fog is expected in many areas for the next two to three days.

Westerly winds have increased the chill further. Although the temperature will not rise much for the next three to four days, the weather department has predicted dense fog during early mornings. On Sunday, Patna recorded a maximum temperature of 24.9°C and a minimum of 13°C. Fog is likely in several parts of the city.
