Lahore Plans Rooftop Auctions at Schools Ahead of Basant Festival, as the District Education Authority (DEA) prepares government school rooftops for Basant-related events. The plan covers several Lahore schools, and rooftops will be auctioned after the Secretary of Education’s approval. This initiative aims to organize the festival safely and efficiently.
The DEA, along with Walled City authorities, is coordinating the process. Rooftops at Victoria Girls High School, Sheranwala Gate schools, Mochi Gate schools, Kabli Mahal schools, Rang Mahal schools, Krishna High School Rang Mahal, Takiya Sadhwan Model High School, Sheesha Moti Bazaar schools, CDGL Bhati Gate High School, Chuna Mandi High School, Gowalmandi High School, and Asifa Model School Sheranwala Gate are included.
These locations will host controlled Basant events, helping manage crowds and reduce traffic congestion.
Officials are also reviewing a proposal to declare four holidays during the first week of February 2026. This move would allow the festival to proceed smoothly while ensuring public safety. Rooftop auctions will encourage organized participation, with schools playing a central role in community engagement during Basant 2026.
Proper planning and approval aim to prevent accidents and ensure safe celebrations. Through this initiative, Lahore sets a precedent for safe festival management, integrating school infrastructure with public events. The combination of rooftop utilization and holiday planning highlights the city’s commitment to organized Basant celebrations. Authorities urge citizens and kite-flying enthusiasts to cooperate with regulations to make the festival both enjoyable and secure.
