New Delhi: Grief gave way to anger, as one of the country's better known public schools was transformed into a battleground on Thursday.
Parents of 18-year-old Akriti who died on Monday after an asthma attack in school are demanding the principal's resignation.
So, where does the truth lie? What really happened that day? There are no clear answers.
At 10:20 am Akriti complained of being uneasy. Her family says the school wasted precious time and she only left the school at 11:10 am.
However, according to the schools, there were no delays.
What makes matters worse is the absence of guidelines on health facilities imperative in schools. So schools don't need to have an ambulance or even a doctor on call.
After such outrage, the government says, it will finally change the rules.
Death of 18-year-old Akriti has led to utter chaos in Delhi's well-known school. While parents seem divided on whether the principal should be held responsible. But one common demand that parents are making is that there should be better medical facilities in our schools.
