Uniform Tie Accident: A heartbreaking news has come to light from Sridungargarh town in the Bikaner district of Rajasthan. Here, an 11-year-old innocent child, who had just returned from school, died tragically while playing. This accident is so unusual and emotional that it brings tears to the eyes of those who hear it. While playing with his younger brother in the courtyard of the house, this innocent boy got his tie caught in a peg on the wall, and that tie became a noose that took his breath away.
Beginning of the Incident: The Innocent Joy of Playing After Returning from School
Kanaram, the grandson of Pemaram Prajapat, a resident of Gunsaisar Bada village, returned home from school on Friday afternoon as usual. He was a fifth-grade student and was considered bright in his studies. As soon as he reached home, he started playing in the courtyard with his younger brother without taking off his school uniform. His mother was preparing lunch in the kitchen and was unable to pay attention to the children's play.
The Tie Becomes a Deadly Trap
While playing, something suddenly happened that no one could have imagined. Kanaram's school tie, tied around his neck, got caught on an iron peg on the wall while playing. He was so engrossed in playing that he did not realize that his tie was tightening. By the time he tried to free himself, the tie had strangled him. He kept trying to free himself, but remained trapped.
Brother's Screams and Mother's Rush, But All in Vain
Seeing Kanaram in distress, his younger brother got scared and started screaming loudly. The mother, who was cooking in the kitchen, also immediately ran to the courtyard, but by then it was too late. Kanaram's eyes were closed and his body had become inactive. The mother immediately opened the tie and, with the help of neighbors, took him to the government hospital in Sridungargarh, where doctors declared him dead.
Mourning in the Village, Hundreds Express Condolences
As soon as the news spread in the village, a crowd of people gathered at Pemaram Prajapat's house to express their condolences. The whole village was stunned by this tragic incident. No one could believe that an innocent child had lost his life while playing. The school administration and village teachers also reached the family and expressed their condolences.
A Small Mistake, A Big Loss
This accident is not just a family sorrow, but a warning to the entire society that children's innocent actions can sometimes prove fatal to their lives. School uniforms, especially garments like ties or belts, can become obstacles in children's play. Children should remove such garments while playing or at least be supervised.
Opinions of Health Experts and Teachers
Health experts say that to avoid such incidents, parents should take special care regarding children's clothing. Things like ties should only be mandatory in school; wearing them at home can be dangerous. Similarly, teachers have also advised parents to keep an eye on children's activities.
Appeal from the Administration: Be Alert, Be Vigilant
The local administration has expressed deep sorrow over the incident and appealed that hooks, pegs or other objects in homes that may be dangerous for children should be removed. It is also important to teach children how to handle themselves in such a situation.
