Jaipur School girl death case has left the country shocked after the video went viral. The parents of a nine-year-old girl who died after allegedly jumping from a school building at Jaipur's Neerja Modi School last year have released classroom CCTV footage, alleging it shows their daughter being repeatedly bullied by classmates before the incident. The family has renewed its demand for action under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act.
Nearly eight months after the incident, the family said the CCTV footage supports its long-standing allegation that repeated bullying and the school's failure to intervene contributed to the child's death.
Parents Allege CCTV Shows Bullying Before Jaipur School Incident
According to the family, the CCTV footage shows Class 4 student Amayra entering the classroom, greeting a classmate and participating in a dance activity before allegedly being repeatedly bullied by other students.
The parents alleged that despite visible signs of distress, their daughter did not receive adequate intervention or protection from teachers and had repeatedly sought help.
9-Year-Old Died After Allegedly Jumping from School Building
Amayra allegedly jumped from the fourth floor of Neerja Modi School on November 1 last year. She was taken to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared her dead on arrival.
The family has alleged that continuous bullying and the school's failure to act contributed to the incident.
Parents Question Police Investigation
Amayra's father, Vijay Meena, and mother, Shivani, alleged that the school did not respond appropriately despite their daughter's repeated attempts to seek help. They also alleged that the police failed to properly investigate what happened inside the classroom and claimed the investigation was influenced by the school management. Rajasthan Police recently filed a chargesheet before a court in the case.
Family Seeks Action Under Juvenile Justice Act
The family has reiterated its demand for action against those they hold responsible under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act. According to the parents, the newly released CCTV footage strengthens their allegations regarding the events leading up to their daughter's death.
Child Safety Concerns Raised
The Jaipur School Girl Death case has also renewed calls for stronger child protection measures in schools. Sanyukt Abhibhavak Sangh state president Arvind Agrawal said the case raises serious concerns about accountability in schools and called for strict enforcement of child safety norms, preservation of evidence and action against those found negligent.
The organisation's state spokesperson, Abhishek Jain, said the case highlighted the need for anti-bullying policies, qualified school counsellors, comprehensive CCTV surveillance and effective grievance redressal systems in private schools.
