Schools have been instructed to inform students in advance about the books required each day, discourage carrying unnecessary materials, and avoid prescribing supplementary books beyond those approved by State Council of Educational Research and Training and National Council of Educational Research and Training.
The directive also emphasizes creating awareness among students and parents about the health risks associated with heavy school bags, including physical strain and posture-related problems.
