Holiday on 26 November 2025 Due to Poor Air Quality: A massive eruption of the Hayli Gubbi volcano in Ethiopia has created a high-altitude ash cloud that has now travelled thousands of kilometres across continents. It has reached various regions of India, including Delhi-NCR, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Punjab, overnight between November 24, 2025, and November 25, 2025. The volcanic eruption has raised concerns among students, parents, and educators about potential school closures and health impacts on the citizens on November 26, 2025. Moreover, the national capital has been struggling with poor AQI (almost reaching 391 and above) for more than a month now. Now, based on the nature of the volcanic ash cloud, its effect on air quality, and the precautions to be taken, there is a possibility of a School Holiday on 26 November 2025 Due to Poor Air Quality in the national capital.
The residents of Delhi, particularly students and parents, are closely monitoring whether schools will remain closed on November 26, 2025, as the national capital continues to struggle with hazardous air quality levels. With the Air Quality Index (AQI) consistently hovering in the 'severe' and 'hazardous' categories throughout November, concerns about the health and safety of school children have intensified.
