As people have already started going to evacuation centres in the North where winds have picked up, the Ministry of Education has made a plea to people who will be staying in the schools.

Education Permanent Secretary Dr Brij Lal says past experiences have shown that some people do have any regards for other’s properties or belongings.

“I am going to make a humble request to people who are going to stay in those schools, please do not damage any facilities, we give you the privilege to go and stay there please do not damage furniture or school toilets. Use the properties but don’t abuse them.”
