Mangaluru, Jul 24: Even though Karnataka government has declared two-day holidays for students of both private and government schools across the state, it would not apply to Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts.
The Indian Vehicle Drivers Trade Union with a strength of over 1 lakh drivers has also decided to support the indefinite strike from Monday.
However, compared to other parts of the state the government bus strike may not have major impact in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi district as most of the commuters in these two districts are dependent on private buses and other vehicles.
Hence, district administrations of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi have decided not to declare holiday for schools and colleges in the district.
Exam postponed
Meanwhile, Mangalore University has postponed its B Ed examination scheduled on July 25 to July 27 owing to government bus strike.
