  "textContent": "Rana Sikandar Hayat, Punjab’s Education Minister, has announced that all schools, colleges, and universities in Punjab will reopen on **April 1**. Institutions will remain closed for holidays until March 31.\n\nThe minister clarified that rumors about an extension of school closures are false and urged parents not to follow circulating fake news.\n\nThe temporary closure, initially announced on March 9 under the direction of Maryam Nawaz, was a response to economic pressures caused by rising fuel prices amid the ongoing Middle East conflict. During the closure period, schools were allowed to continue online classes, and scheduled examinations proceeded as planned.\n\nThe decision comes as disruptions in global fuel supply, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz, have affected Pakistan and other countries, leading to surges in petroleum prices.\n\nThe post Punjab announces key updates on school holiday schedule appeared first on HUM News.",
