Venezuela Denies Night School Suspension

CARACAS - Venezuelan Education Minister Hector Navarro denied on Wednesday rumors spread by opposition groups about the likely suspension of night classes as part of the country''s energy saving plan.

He denied those comments and said the school period 2009-2010 will be reactivated as of Thursday, January 7.

Interviewed on Educando en Socialism program, broadcast by Radio Nacional de Venezuela, Navarro urged all Venezuelans to take steps leading to a rational use of energy and drinking water.

On Tuesday, Vice President and Defense Minister Ramon Carrizalez reiterated the call to save energy to mitigate the impact of the draught caused by El Nino climate effect.

We need to change consumption trends in order to curb them and eliminate the waste of electricity, he said during a press conference in the vice presidential headquarters.
