Parents Release CCTV Footage in Jaipur Schoolgirl Suicide Case, Seek Further Action
Nearly eight months after nine-year-old Amaira Meena died by suicide at Jaipur's Neerja Modi School, her parents released new CCTV footage showing her classroom moments before the incident. The footage reportedly depicts Amaira participating normally before being repeatedly bullied by classmates using a digital slate and seeking help from her teacher multiple times without adequate response. The family alleges sustained bullying and institutional neglect contributed to her death and demands stronger legal action, including abetment to suicide charges against school staff. Authorities have filed a chargesheet citing negligence, but the family calls for a more comprehensive investigation into the school's role and teacher qualifications.
