He told journalists that Chief Educational Officer N. Geetha conducted the inquiry at the school and found the answers “evasive”. The Government would launch an awareness programme for the safety of students at all schools on November 19.
It would soon open a portal for corporate social responsibility activities to help government schools to make such initiatives transparent, he said.
