Bangalore:
Bangalore's Vibgyor School, where a six-year-old girl was allegedly raped by her gym instructor earlier this month, has re-opened today after remaining shut for a while.
Concerned parents came in large numbers to drop their kids, just to see if things are in place and what safety measures have been taken by the school.
Mr. Kaushik, the father of a student studying in Vibgyor School said, "I have come just to ensure if things are fine. How much comforting the given guidelines are will be known with time. The schools have already done a few things to ensure the safety. We are looking forward to how quickly all the measures are adopted and followed."
Mrs. Dutta who had a tough time in convincing her daughter to join the school again told agencies, "I have come here to drop my daughter and also ensure if things are in place. My daughter is in eighth standard and understands things well. We had to counsel her over few things and only then she has agreed to come back to the school."
"It is very tough for her and us as well to make such decisions. I just hope that the measures taken don't get over in a week or month's time," she added.
On July 2, two gym instructors had allegedly raped the minor girl inside the premises of Bangalore's Vibgyor School when she had gone to the washroom.
Bangalore has witnessed a slew of protests after the shocking incident came to light. The earlier Police Commissioner Raghavendra Auradkar also faced the heat and was replaced by M N Reddy.
