Sitting on a wooden diwan surrounded by all her relatives, the anger of Jyoti Thakur — whose seven-year-old child was brutally murdered inside the school — can be felt in her tone. She did not drop a tear and controlled her emotions but made sure she made her point heard.

"The Director (Ryan) Pinto should be behind the bars else he will eat up the future of all the children. This nation will be left without the future (kids)," said Jyoti. According to the parents, the principal, director and the teachers must be punished for the lapse on their part. Other parents who had come to their residence to pay condolences also echoed the same message against the school management.

"For Pinto it is a money minting business and nothing else. The children are also scared to go to the school," said the parent of a Class 6 girl.

Located on the outskirts of Gurugram, the Ryan International School has no boundary wall on one side for the last few months. Close to the broken wall is a operational wine and beer shop. With only four security guards, and a liquor shop, the locals allege that the stretch between the two is unsafe.

"Drunk drivers and conductors are often seen sitting on the roads and playing cards. How can a road close to a school be so unsafe? Why there was no police vigil so far," said a angry parent.

Parents protesting outside the school alleged that the employees have been using the washroom for the kids for quite a long time. "As I spoke to my child, he told me that these conductors, sweepers and driver have always been using the same washroom where these kids also go. How can this be possible? Why did no one keep a check on it earlier," said Aditi Singh, another parent.
