New Delhi, May 6 (IBNS) : About 70 students were hospitalised after they fell sick following a gas leak from a container in an area close to a south Delhi girls' school on Saturday morning, media reports said.

The incident took place when classes were on in the Rani Jhansi Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya in Tughalakabad area.

Some students complained of irritation in the eyes and throat due to the gas leak.

The entire school was vacated while those who fell sick were taken to hospital.

They were, however, released later on after primary treatment.

However, the source of the gas leak was yet to be identified. A fire brigade team has reached the spot.
