The family of a 9-year-old girl who died after jumping from a school building in Jaipur is frustrated with the slow pace of the investigation. The victim's father claims that despite assurances from local officials, no concrete action has been taken yet. The CBSE-formed committee has submitted its report, but the family is unhappy with the sluggish progress. The father alleges that the school staff, including the class teacher, were negligent and failed to address the girl's distress signals. According to the CBSE report, the girl approached her teacher five times in the last 45 minutes before her death, seeking help with bullying remarks made by classmates. However, the teacher's response was inadequate, and the girl was not referred to the school counsellor despite repeated distress signals. The family is now demanding a fair and speedy investigation, strict action against those responsible, and legal measures against the school management. The CBSE has issued a show-cause notice to the school and submitted that the crime scene was compromised before forensic examination could take place. The family's anguish has sparked concerns about the need for prompt action in such cases. The incident highlights the importance of implementing anti-bullying protocols and ensuring that schools provide adequate support to students facing distress. The family has met with local officials, including MP Kirori Lal Meena and Deputy Chief Minister Diya Kumari, who assured them of action but failed to deliver. The family hopes that a swift and just investigation will bring them closure and prevent similar tragedies in the future. In a related note, the family is seeking support from suicide prevention helplines, including Sumaitri (011-23389090) and Sneha Foundation (044-24640050), which can provide assistance to those struggling with mental health issues.
