Hyderabad: In a concerning incident, around 40-50 students of Sri Chaitanya Techno School in Chintal were taken ill on Saturday, December 7, after they vomited blood due to a pungent smell from acid which was reportedly used to clean the classroom walls.
As per reports, at around 10:30 am, students from Class 7th and 8th experienced a strong odour from their classrooms which was recently cleaned with acid.
As the odour became unbearable, a few students started vomiting blood. They were immediately rushed to Pulse and Pranadhara Hospitals where some of them were treated in the ICU.
Initially, the school management did not tell the parents about the incident. But when the parents came to know, they launched a strong protest in front of the school.
However, after the doctors informed the parents that the children were in stable condition, the situation calmed down.
