“Investigations are being conducted by the three-member sub-committee formed by the district administration. It has found many flaws in the security of students for which the school management is answerable and a detailed report would be submitted by the sub-committee tomorrow,” he said.
Apart from this, there is no boundary wall in the school; there is no separate arrangement of toilets for bus drivers and conductors of 40 buses deployed by the school for bringing the students, and windows in the toilet meant for students were found broken.
Sharma said after the submission of the report of the sub-committee, action would be taken against the school management.
“If the parents of the child are still not satisfied, the government would seek help from any other agency. But I feel they will be satisfied when the charge- sheet is presented in the court along with evidences,” he added.
The minister said that no leniency would be shown in this case. On the demand of parents, Ryan International School would remain closed on Monday.
