On a fateful Thursday, as tiny tots boarded their school van like any other day, they met with a horrifying experience that landed them into a hospital instead of school. Three children were scalded after the radiator of the school van carrying children blew up in Pokhran in Jaisalmer on Thursday. The impact was such that one of the children who received serious injuries had to be rushed to Jodhpur for treatment.

The entire episode occurred at Ramdeora Road during morning as the van was ferrying children to school. As per information, a TATA S vehicle was carrying students of Kendriya Vidyalaya located on Ramdeora Road. 

There were total 22 children in the van and three of them were sitting on the front seat of the vehicle. When the van reached near Gomatt village, the radiator exploded.

As the radiator burst, hot water splashed on Kuldeep (7), son of Om Prakash, a resident of Pokaran, which caused him severe burns. Along with Kuldeep, two other children sitting besides him also got scalded as the water was of boiling temperature.
