The holiday, announced for January 6 and 7, 2026, applies to all students from nursery to Class 8 in government, private, and CBSE schools in Chhatarpur.
Teachers, however, are required to attend school and continue official and administrative work during this period.
The video, featuring the little girl has quickly won hearts across state. Her innocent appeal and shivering voice highlight how harsh the winter has become.
The cold wave continues to affect many parts of Madhya Pradesh, with temperatures dropping sharply in several districts.
