CM Mamata Banerjee urges early summer holidays for West Bengal private schools amid Indo-Pak tensions

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday urged private English-medium schools in the state to declare summer vacations from May 9, citing the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan following the recent cross-border strikes under 'Operation Sindoor.' Banerjee made the appeal just hours after the Indian armed forces launched missile strikes on nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives on April 22.
