Thane:
Incessant downpour in Thane and Palghar districts over the past couple of days, which led to flooding in several areas, has prompted the administration to declare a holiday for schools on Monday.
Thane district collector Rajesh Narvekar issued orders to this effect on Sunday.
He said the schools will remain shut on Monday as a precautionary measure.
Palghar district collector Dr Kailas Shinde also declared a holiday for all the schools in the district.
