Kailashahar Sep 7: A portion of the roof of a school collapsed during school time - however, no one was injured. The incident occurred at Laxmi Narayan Bari Junior Basic School at Kailashahar on Wednesday.
Total 57 students study in the school and three teachers impart lessons to them.
According to locals, the roof was constructed around two-and-half years ago. When contacted in charge of the school Abhijit Malakar said, they noticed that the roof of a classroom was caving in. After that, the school authority decided to keep the classroom locked.
When the roof collapsed today, the room was closed as a result no one was injured. However, the blades of four fans were damaged.
Malakar also informed the media that all three teachers joined the school after the roof construction works were completed – so they have no idea about the quality of work.
Locals expressed dismay at the collapse of the roof within two-and-half years of its construction.
