Five school administrators arrested in the Kallakurichi student death case, including school principal Ravikumar, filed a petition in the Madras High Court seeking bail. When this was brought to court, the Madras High Court questioned why the Kallakurichi private school administrators were arrested. Following this, the school administrators granted bail today.

Kallakuruchi school student Srimathi committed suicide on July 13. Her family members protested against the school. Later the protest turned out to be a riot. Protestors ransacked the entire school on July 17. This has become more sensational news and is going viral.
