The announcement was made by the Sikkim education department on Tuesday on a notification.
In another notification, the Sikkim government on Monday lifted inter-state travel restrictions in the festive season allowing people to enter the state without producing negative RT-PCR test reports or vaccination certificates at the border, as the COVID-19 situation has improved, according to a state notification.
This notification was issued by the Home Department of Sikkim.
