All Schools and Universities in Lahore Closed – Punjab Govt Announces 2025 Update

Many parents and students are asking: “Why are all schools and universities in Lahore closed now?” In this announcement for 2025, the Punjab Government cites security and law-and-order concerns. The closure is a precautionary security measure triggered by law and order tensions and blocked roads across the city. All government and private schools across Lahore have been instructed to close immediately. Universities and colleges are also included in the shutdown. Exams scheduled for today (especially law exams) are postponed; new dates will be announced later. Lahore is the epicenter of the closure. All educational institutions – primary, secondary, colleges, and universities – are affected. The closure order may cover neighboring districts if security concerns expand or protests escalate. Exams scheduled for today are postponed until further notice. Some institutions may switch to online classes temporarily to reduce academic disruption. Administrative offices of schools and universities will pause normal operations. Education departments and institution heads are sending out alerts via SMS, notices, or campus announcements. Closure is “until further notice,” meaning it could be short-lived (a few days) or extended depending on how the situation evolves.
