A private educational institution in Maharashtra's Thane city has temporarily transitioned to an online mode of instruction following complaints regarding suspected cases of mosquito-borne diseases among several students and educators.

On Tuesday, the school administration stated that reports indicating a significant number of students affected by dengue are "baseless allegations with vested interests," reported news agency PTI. 

Furthermore, it reported that the health inspection conducted by the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) found no evidence of mosquito breeding on the premises. Consequently, the school has implemented online classes for students from nursery to Class 10 from June 18 to June 28.
