Overview
- A nine-year-old Class 6 girl suddenly collapsed inside her Mayur Vihar classroom shortly after a sports activity and later died despite on-site rescue attempts.
- Classroom and campus CCTV footage, published by media outlets, captures the moment she fell and shows the teacher and classmates rushing to help her.
- The teacher carried the unconscious child out of the classroom to seek aid and other students tried basic first aid before medical help arrived.
- Medical staff have given a preliminary view that the incident may have been cardiac in origin but officials say the exact cause will be confirmed only after a post-mortem.
- Police report no evidence of foul play so far and the family—whose mother is a homemaker and father works as a hospital driver—awaits the formal autopsy and the outcome of the investigation.
