Education Minister Kanwar Pal said in an official statement here on Monday that during this period, however, online teaching will continue in which schools and colleges will take necessary action by focusing on the preparation of the upcoming examination.

"Earlier the state government had declared winter holidays (in the educational institutions) from January 3 to 12," the statement said.
