Jaipur MP Manju Sharma visited the hospital to meet the students and assured their families that their condition is stable. She also took stock of the medical arrangements. Additionally, Rajasthan University student leader Nirmal Chaudhary arrived at the hospital with his supporters. However, a minor altercation reportedly broke out between Chaudhary’s supporters and police officers present at the hospital.Soumya Gurjar Mayor of the Jaipur Municipal Corporation said the matter will be investigated thoroughly, all parameters will be checked including the firefighting system. We will ensure that the security measures are followed for the safety of the coaching students.The incident has once again raised concerns about the safety standards in Jaipur’s rapidly growing coaching industry. The city has become a hub for students preparing for competitive exams, leading to the establishment of a dedicated coaching hub in Pratapnagar by the former congress government led by CM Ashok Gehlot. However, many institutes continue to operate in residential areas without adequate infrastructure or safety measures.Last month, the tragic death of three students in a Delhi coaching centre due to basement flooding had already sparked demands for stricter safety regulations. Sunday’s incident in Jaipur further highlights the urgent need for the relocation of coaching centres to properly equipped hubs to ensure student safety.Local authorities and parents are now calling for immediate action to prevent such incidents in the future.
