The investigation into the tragic death of three UPSC students who had drowned in the basement of a coaching centre running in Delhi was transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) by the Delhi High Court on Friday.
The students were reported to have been trapped in the basement when it flooded and subsequently died. The decision of the court to transfer the probe into the incident and its circumstances to the CBI is for ensuring a thorough probe. The measure reflects the seriousness of the situation and calls for an in-depth look at the coaching centre’s safety measures and emergency response system.
