Karnataka Education Minister announced new guidelines to schools
The state’s school education and literacy department is all set to reintroduce the “water bell” concept in all board affiliated schools across the state. Karnataka Education Minister BC Nagesh announced new guidelines to schools.
The move comes after health problems such as dehydration, stomach upset; dry throat and headaches have increased among students due to low water intake. School Education and Literacy Minister BC Nagesh has instructed the Deputy Director of Public Education Department (DDPI) to ring the water bell three times a day for children to drink water.
Water is very important to keep the body hydrated and healthy. The water bill will be applicable to all schools,” said BC Nagesh. In 2019, former Education Minister S. Suresh Kumar introduced the concept on the advice of the then Tourism Minister CT Ravi to implement the Kerala model in the state.
But due to the Covid-19 pandemic and prolonged closure of schools, it could not be implemented effectively, officials said.
