"Our officials called an ambulance and the students were rushed to Sadar hospital for treatment. We are trying to ascertain the reasons behind the illness, and are waiting for the medical report from the hospital," told Nehal. Although most of the students were discharged today morning, six girls and one boy were under observation at the Sadar Hospital here, Dr Anwar Hussain of the hospital said.
