Over a year ago, I had written to the Chief Minister of Kerala urging a comprehensive infrastructure audit of schools, after the heartbreaking death of a young girl due to a snakebite inside her classroom.
It pains me deeply that another precious life – 13 year-old Mithun Manu – has been lost to electrocution from a sagging power line within a school compound in Kollam.
I urge the Kerala Government to immediately undertake a time-bound, public audit and upgradation of all school infrastructure in the state and fix responsibility for this tragedy.
No parent should have to endure such unimaginable loss. Every child has the right to a safe learning environment.
