The High Court in Chhattisgarh took a difficult stance on schools for the safety of children

The Chhattisgarh High Court has taken a difficult stance to ensure the safety of children in the schools of the state. The court recently noted the incident of the roof of a school in the Mungeli district and injuries to two children. According to the information, the old and dilapidated roof of this government school in the Mungeli district suddenly fell, causing two students to be seriously injured. Shortly after the incident, the local administration recognized the injured children in the nearest hospital, where their treatment process was underway. This incident became a matter of great concern about the safety of children. The Supreme Court itself has been investigating in this matter to the Department of Government and Education. The court gave clear instructions that immediate inspection should be done to ensure the safety of children in all government and private schools and to secure dilapidated buildings or disorganized structures. The court said that the safety of children is extremely important and that any form of negligence will not be acceptable. This incident raised serious questions about the disorder of schools and safety of children. The Supreme Court ordered the Department of Education to submit details of the structural status of all schools in each district and take concrete steps for the necessary improvement. According to experts, many schools in the state are operating in old buildings, which have not been addressed to the recovery and security system. The difficult position of the Supreme Court in this case shows that the safety of children cannot be ignored and that the state government will have to take active steps in this direction. The current incident has also made it clear that regular investigation and recovery of school buildings is not only needed, but it is also an important way to protect children’s lives. The Supreme Court has warned the state government that if such incidents are repeated in the future, strict action will be taken against responsible officials. Share this story -tags
