The injured teacher has been admitted to a hospital and her condition is stated to be critical. She sustained severe injuries to her skull and multiple fractures.

The teachers were giving a demonstration on how to slide down from the rooftop of the building in case of an emergency.

Shraddha Sharma was also asked to slide down the building using a rope which came loose on her way down causing her to fall.
