TIL Desk/National/Gurgaon/ With a view to strictly implement the rules and regulations related to the safety of students in schools, the Haryana government on Friday decided to amend the law in this regard in the ensuing Assembly session. This was informed by state Education Minister Ram Bilas Sharma at a press conference in Chandigarh.
He said the murder case of a seven-year-old boy in the Ryan International School here had been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the state government had appointed the deputy commissioner, Gurgaon as the administrator of the school for a period of three months.
Thereafter, the situation would be reviewed and if any loopholes were found, the term of the deputy commissioner as administrator could further be extended, Sharma said.
