Amid reports that the reopening of schools for the fresh academic year would be delayed due to the scorching summer heat, Tamil Nadu school education minister K A Sengottaiyan has said schools will sure be reopened as planned on June 3. Speaking to the media, he refuted the reports which claimed otherwise as false and said there is no change in the government's plan to reopen schools on June 3.
