Jaipur – A tragic incident occurred in Rajasthan’s Jhalawar district where the roof of a government school collapsed, leading to the death of seven children. Two other children are reported to be in critical condition, according to Education Secretary Krishna Kunal.
The incident happened at 8:30 AM on Friday at Piplodi Primary School, where the entire single-story building came crashing down. At the time, around 60 people, including students, teachers, and staff, were present inside. The school operated classes up to the eighth standard.
Locals and school authorities have revealed that several complaints had been made to the authorities about the poor condition of the building.
