A post on the school’s Facebook page said: “The sad and shocking demise of Anil Kumar on May 24 has left the entire Sunrise family in a pall of gloom.
“The management, administrators, other faculty members, pupils and the school as a whole is struck with intense sorrow and is speechless. The bond that he had developed over the years, just as how we have with each faculty, makes the loss unbearable.
“The entire SEPS family is shaken and finds it hard to come to terms with this most saddening news.”
