The Indian government on Wednesday said it would reopen schools for students in upper grades after more than five months of closure amid a daily rise of 89,706 coronavirus infections.

At least 1,115 deaths linked to the virus were reported in the past 24 hours, bringing the total number of fatalities to 73,890, the Health Ministry said in its daily update. The ministry announced late Tuesday the partial reopening of schools from September 21 for students between 9th and 12th grade.

India imposed a strict lockdown on March 25 and began lifting curbs since mid-May, in spite of a surge in infections, to revive a virus-battered economy that has seen a loss of millions of jobs.
