And as she woke up, there were all the big students, i.e., boys and senior students of the second trip. It was only when she started crying that the conductor realised she was left inside and then called me.” The girl arrived at school 8:40 am, and the school tried to downplay the incident. Following this, the family withdrew the child’s admission from the school and complained to the local authorities. “I can’t find the heart to send her to school until she is a bit older to look after herself. I have studied in the same school, but I never expected my daughter to be treated this way. Our trust has been broken.
