Jaipur school tragedy: 9-year-old jumped from 4th floor, CCTV reveals
A tragic incident at a Jaipur school has left many shaken—a nine-year-old girl died after jumping from the fourth floor on October 1.
Investigators found that she was bullied by classmates during a class, and despite her repeated complaints, the teacher initially did not address her complaints.
CCTV footage captured her distress as she left the classroom, ostensibly for the washroom, but headed upstairs instead.
Safety lapses and ignored warnings spark outrage
The probe also found serious safety issues at the school—like unsecured balconies and no staff monitoring hallways—which go against building rules.
The girl's parents say their concerns about sexual bullying were ignored, even though they raised them several times.
They've now filed a legal case against the school, as police continue to investigate and plan to question the teacher involved.
