A school building in Rajasthan collapsed after heavy rainfall, resulting in at least four fatalities and 17 injuries. About 25 to 30 students were inside the classroom during the incident. Local police suspect the building's deterioration caused by recent rains contributed to the collapse. Some injured individuals are reported to be in critical condition. The education minister has initiated oversight of medical treatment for the victims and demanded assistance for their families. A formal investigation into the incident is planned to determine the cause of the collapse, while rescue efforts continue.
Local police believe the building's deteriorating structure, worsened by recent heavy rainfall, may have caused the collapse. Some of the injured are in critical condition, senior police officer Amit Kumar told the Press Trust of India.
Rajasthan's education minister, Madan Dilawar, said he had instructed officials to oversee the medical treatment of the injured and ensure families receive support.
Dilawar added that a formal investigation would be launched to determine the exact cause. I have also spoken to the collector and directed authorities to take stock of the situation and help in whatever way possible.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma stated instructions have been given to the concerned authorities to ensure proper treatment for the injured children.
