Rejected petition For all school-aged children to go back a year and re-start from September 2020.

To implement this and advise the same to all the schools across the country.

More details

I believe, it would be more beneficial for both parents and children with the school education. The children across our country have already lost so much learning due to being away from schools and getting schooled at home. We need to make sure that our children are getting every opportunity to learn because they are our future.
