With vans and rickshaws carrying school children already under scrutiny with safety and permits, an alarming incident involving a school van was caught on CCTV camera in Vadodara’s Makarpura, adding to the safety concerns of children.

In the footage, two children can be seen falling out of the open rear door of a speeding school van. The incident seems to be taking place near a housing society, according to footage.

Reports suggest that the van’s rear door was open and it was packed with children without any safety measures in place.

The two children were injured. The footage shows residents of the society rushing to attend to the two girls as soon as they fall.

As per preliminary reports, the school van was going to drop off the school students from the Bagikhana area.
