The blame dear friends should be solely placed at the doorstep of the Transport Manager. Inspite of repeatedly complaining to him about the mini vans he has not bothered to change them to buses. the children travel to and fro in extremely cramped conditions. there is no place in these vans for an attendant. its packed with kids. he has no other work assigned to him. could he not enforce the said "rules". could he not himself check each vehicle before it passes the school gates.. what about that driver??? how can u absolve him of the blame? he was just driving a minivan. even before he locked it and went off for his beauty sleep could he not just check the vehicle once??? it would have taken just 5 minutes and it would have saved her life. due to this incident the entire school has suffered. its reputation so painstakingly built by its teachers and principal is in dust. call the management to answer questions. no use blasting the already grief stricken principal.
