According to reports, blood-soaked Nayan was lying in the school compound for more than 20 minutes but the school management did not even bother to call an ambulance.
Early Wednesday morning, a large crowd of community members gathered outside the school, leading to protests that escalated into vandalism on the school premises. Reports indicate that some school staff were also assaulted during the demonstrations.
Police deployed a significant force to restore order, and clashes were reported between protesters and law enforcement. The accused student has been taken into custody, and authorities are proceeding under juvenile laws.
In the wake of the tragedy, parents and Hindu organizations have filed complaints against the school’s principal and management, seeking accountability for the incident.
Police have launched a detailed investigation into the case, and further updates are awaited.
