Sources said Neha (17), a resident of Sinduwari Kala in Giddhaur breathed her last yesterday. Doctors declared her brought dead at Chatra Sadar Hospital on Tuesday evening. Her father Om Prakash Saw said her younger daughter Anchal Kumari (class-8th) also studies in this school and she had informed them that Neha was not feeling good. Even other girl students also informed about it to school management but in vain.
On Anchal’s information, parents made a call to school at 3:30 in the afternoon yesterday requesting authorities to ensure treatment of Neha who they said was complaining of stomach ache. But he said the school failed to take any action in this regard making Anchal to make a call to her maternal uncle in Gangpur village. When the relatives reached there, the school refused to allow Neha to go with them but when they insisted, permission came. Later, she was declared brought dead at Chatra Sadar Hospital.
Neha’s father said it is hard for him to forget how much painful the last moment was for her daughter.
