Local levels in Kanchanpur have started closing schools temporarily owing to rising temperatures. 

Some local governments have already announced the school holidays for a few days, taking into account student's health concerns. 

Such holidays will later be adjusted with the regular summer vacations, it is said. 

The Bheemdatta Municipality has already announced the closure of all institutional and community schools inside the locality for three days beginning today. According to Municipality's education section chief Hari Dutta Joshi, the decision was made considering that forcing students to attend school in extreme heat could have possible health implications on them. 

Likewise, the Krishnapur Municipality has also announced a three-day holiday for all schools in the municipality starting today. 

 The Shuklaphanta Municipality is also preparing to close the schools for a few days. 

Municipality education section chief Tikendra Raj Bhatta said that they are closely monitoring the weather conditions and its possible impact on students' health. 

Teachers said many students have been complaining of headaches and falling asleep in classrooms, finding it hard to concentrate on their studies amidst the increased heat. 

"On one hand, not all class rooms have fans, and even the available fans are not functioning well. On the other hand, the classrooms are roofed with corrugated zinc sheets.  As a result, it has become very uncomfortable for both students and teachers to engage in teaching learning activities," said a teacher.  

Daytime temperatures in Kanchanpur and neighboring Kailali have exceeded 40 degrees Celsius.
