Schools in several states will remain closed on February 14, 2026, due to the second Saturday holiday, while select districts in Uttar Pradesh have announced temporary closures owing to the reverse flow of devotees from the Maha Kumbh. In addition, with Maha Shivaratri falling on Sunday, February 15, some private schools and institutions may declare a bridge holiday on Saturday to provide a long weekend.

In Uttar Pradesh, district authorities have ordered school closures in major religious cities including Ayodhya and Varanasi due to heavy crowd movement linked to the Maha Kumbh’s reverse flow (Palat Pravah). Schools up to Class 12 in Ayodhya will remain closed from February 11 to 14, 2026. In Varanasi, schools up to Grade 8 have been closed until February 14, while schools in Mirzapur will remain shut until February 13. Board-related practical examinations, however, will continue as scheduled. The shutdown has been implemented to manage large crowds visiting temples, which has led to significant transportation disruptions.
