In Maharashtra's Palghar district, two students from Eklavya Gangagiri Ashram School died and three were seriously injured after their motorcycle skidded while returning from a Navratri Garba event in Sarsun village. The accident occurred late at night in Jawhar taluka. An inquiry revealed security lapses, including students leaving the hostel undetected and non-functional CCTV cameras. The school headmaster, warden, and watchman were suspended pending investigation, and parents have raised concerns about student safety and supervision.
