A concrete roof at a government school in Mugallolli Tanda, Bagalkote district, Karnataka, collapses while classes are in session. Six students are injured with minor injuries and are taken for treatment at a hospital.
Officials say the incident affects a damaged portion of the school building, and repair work is ordered to begin immediately.

Both reports note that parents previously raise concerns about the school’s deteriorated condition and seek stronger safety measures. The Times of India emphasizes the need for prompt repairs after the collapse, while the Free Press Journal includes additional details on officials’ visits and the statements made by local administration about the students being safe.
