Dear Manish,

This is what India is. Such accidents are happening often in Tamil Nadu, and innocent kids are losing their lives. However, there is no prompt action from the government side, and corruption is prevalent everywhere. Where are we going?

Dear Manish,

Thanks for sharing the valuable and very painful information with us. What a coincidence that I am reading this message on social media. I think our government has released some judgment on this matter. Surely, if the school authorities follow the rules, it will be preventable. If not, again, many more articles like this one need to be shared, the 'BITTER TRUTH'.

Thank you.

Dear all,

Please find below the recent history of accidents related to schools in Tamil Nadu. After every accident, there will be a discussion regarding rules and regulations for some time. However, eventually, everyone forgets until the next accident occurs.

4. 9th April 2012: A school van overturned due to overspeeding at Ulundurpet. 1 UKG student was killed, and 25 others were injured.

5. 16th July 2012: An auto-rickshaw overturned due to driver negligence at Padiyur. A 12-year-old girl lost her life, and 9 other students were injured.

Dear Mr. Manish,

Even though it is not the appreciable news, we can appreciate you for creating awareness and sharing the useful message with our members. If you permit, I will use this for sharing with my friends to alert them and accordingly pass instructions to the children.

Hi All,

It is only valuable when somebody wants to learn. There is a lot of news available regarding this kind of incident, but so far, there has been no action from the government. The government needs to take a big step against it, but due to corruption, it is not possible.

Dear All,

Yesterday, I forwarded the news along with the High Court Order on School Safety to our School's Principal, with a copy sent to all our senior school management representatives. I came across this information through citehr, and it has truly helped me enhance my knowledge. Thank you to PCA for sharing the same.

Dear All,

Incidents in schools are not very rare in our country. Have a look into the below incident which occurred in one of the schools in UP yesterday, killing 6 innocent children.

The Indian Government really needs to do something to enforce the rules made.

Dear all,

It is very unfortunate that the child was killed. My sincere prayers go out to the family, giving them the strength to bear the passing of their daughter. Let us, as parents, take on the responsibility of preventing such accidents by regularly talking to our children, teaching them to be aware of any discrepancies, and taking turns to inspect the bus or van for any signs of poor maintenance or damage. If necessary, we should be prepared to switch from one vehicle to another. Let us each do our part and not place blame on the government or school authorities, as our children are precious to us.

Lakshmi.

HR professionals seek laws from the Tamil Nadu government! The responsibility of your child is yours and not the government's! What can be done to improve ourselves and become more responsible citizens? Please advise.

Fortunately, school management, transport in charge, and vehicle inspectors are all behind bars. The RTO has been suspended, and every school is busy replacing or repairing old vehicles. Only in Tamil Nadu can such swift actions be expected, not in other states. Hopefully, other states will learn a lesson from this tragedy and the subsequent actions taken.

Dear All,

The safety of kids is the responsibility of everyone, including their parents. Safety starts at home itself. Please find attached the picture, clearly showing the failure of parental responsibility. I don't understand how parents allow kids to ride in such a vehicle.
