As reported earlier, an over-loaded 72-seater bus, carrying 107 passengers overturned on the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway on September 26.
The passenger bus skidded at the accident-prone Kallar Kahar area. The bus was carrying 101 students and five staff members, who were on their way back from a school trip to Kallar Kahar and Khewra Salt Mines, widely-known as tourist destinations.
Millat School was temporarily sealed after the inquiry report blamed school administration for the accident.
However, parents of the students argued that closing down the school was affecting their children's education.
The school will be now supervised by the district government for some time.
In a meeting with the school's staff, EDO Education Sohaib Imran monitored arrangements for the school's reopening and directed that irrelevant people should not be allowed to enter the school.
The school will reopen from October 3, after it was unsealed by the district administration.

Its a nice move.There will not be any accident in pakistan for another 100 years as the only person responsible for all the accidents happened in the last century has ben arrested by the courageous efforts of Police.
Well done everybody.Just keep on arresting somebody who dont know someone at higher places.
Although the owner and school administration is at fault but they are not the only guilty parties. The parents, transporters, district administration and above all, provincial and federal government, all are irresponsible and criminal. Haven't they seen the Suzuki pick ups, which carry dozens of children at a time. These pick-ups are not meant for passengers, but they are used without any check. Except A.C. buses which run between cities, all other passengers vehicles are over loaded, road un-worthy and disaster in waiting. Government wakes up after accident and after local officials make some money, everything is swept under the carpet.
How is his nationality relevant? Conspiracy?
