Rajasthan School Roof Plaster Falls On 3 Children In Udaipur, Dilapidated Building Ordered Shut

Three children were injured when a section of plaster from a school roof collapsed onto them at a government primary school in Udaipur, Rajasthan. The incident occurred on Tuesday at Government Primary School, Narda, in Vaniya Talai, Bhinder panchayat samiti.

The family later took the children to the Government District Hospital for treatment. The dilapidated school building, with a total of 37 pupils and two teachers, is ordered to close following the incident. Authorities are currently exploring safe, shaded alternatives for the students to continue their education.

The community expressed concerns over the school's condition, stating that the roof had been repaired in 2020 but has now deteriorated again. They claim that the building was merely painted to give the appearance of improvement.
