School Wall Crumbles in Ajmer, Bus Hit Amidst Heavy Downpour
Ajmer is witnessing the aftermath of two consecutive days of heavy rainfall, with its impact now visible on government infrastructure. On Monday, a section of the dilapidated boundary wall of a government school located in the city's Topdadra area suddenly crumbled.
The collapsing wall struck a private bus parked nearby, causing extensive damage to the vehicle. Fortunately, no students, school staff, or passers-by were present at the scene during the incident, narrowly averting what could have been a major tragedy.
Immediate Response and Community Concerns
Following the collapse, the school administration quickly mobilized. A JCB machine was brought in to clear the fallen debris, ensuring the premises were secured. Authorities also initiated an inspection of the damaged section of the wall.
Local residents from the area have voiced long-standing concerns, stating that the school's boundary wall had been in a dilapidated condition for quite some time. They believe that the continuous heavy rains further weakened the structure, ultimately leading to its collapse.
Many residents expressed relief that the incident did not occur during school hours or late at night when someone might have been passing by, which could have resulted in severe injuries or worse. The community is now demanding a comprehensive technical inspection of the entire school boundary wall from the school administration and relevant departments.
They are urging for prompt repairs to all weakened sections to prevent any future unfortunate incidents. The collapse has understandably sparked significant safety concerns among the local populace.
