    O my God,he saved children from these beasts ,and last didnt take care,or didnt make out he himself is in danger.Very sad.One should help others when danger is there,but same time take care not to go extreem till your life is in danger.He could have aslo think of his family .I think he must have not thought he is in danger.With wesps is not to play.have to be take care .Their stichs are more dangerous and painful. ,one may fall immediately in shock.Try to take out stings.or apply cold ice on bite place.Take the assistance of a doctor who can check your BP.and stich place.Heartfelt sympathy to his family.May God give them enough courage to bear the pain of his loss.He did it for children.May his soul rest in peace.

    I know this menace. Once it bit me also of course I did not disturb them.it is someone from our family disturbed it and intentionally tried to bit my brother who had engagement so as to disfigure and people will laugh on that day. on that day.luckily he closed the door.but I left out for some time.at that time it bit me. It is terrible. Until we don't remove it's thorn we can't sleep.It may be fatal if more bites we undergo.

    Extremely sad to see a brave person to have given his life / dying in this manner - -- ( A NOBLE ACT ) -- meaning he rescued the children took them to hospital but did not take first aid himself- --- Possibly the hospital should have insisted as it is known the main reasons in such cases are allergic reactions ---- There are standard operating procedures - for such attacks -- post attack treatments -- Too late - / not to get into blame game -- but lessons -- ALL WE CAN SAY - MAY THE SOUL OF SANTHOSH --REST IN PEACE -

    Very sad to hear..... Life is lost by doing good deed.... May God provide strength and patience to his family. Looks like he took it carelessly for not understanding the impact of venom of bees. If one or two stings can be tolerable as well negligible, but if they are too many then consulting doctor is the best solution.

    An unblemished humane act. He just sacrificed his life for the innocent school going children!. Where are our hatred and poison/venome spreading fanatics of Hindu Jagran Vedike,Ram Sena,Rashtriya Hindu Sena supporters in this forum? This is called love and brotherhood or religion or humanity!

    Honey Bees are different from Wasps and Hornets. Wasps and Hornets collect honey as well as feed spiders and other insects to their larvae to grow faster. They never store honey like honey bees and are more dangerous than honey bees if their nest is shaken or under attack. I have seen them build a small nest in my car porch and it grew bigger than football and due to its weight it fell down and they built new nest somewhere else but never left their fallen nest completely and one bit my wife. I used our water outlet pipe of terrace to break open that nest and they left that broken nest and their eggs and larvae was taken by red ants despite the wasps trying to chase them away. But I advise people never attempt this as every situation is different and precautions are very much needed to survive their attack. A myth is they don't see in the night and village people burn their nests at night using long sticks with fire, it might be illegal but Fire brigade people might know better way to safely remove them without harming them or themselves.
