El gobierno chileno se reunió este martes para abordar la violencia escolar reciente y anunció que ingresará uno o dos proyectos de ley el lunes o martes próximo, cuando reanude el Congreso. Los ministros José García Ruminot, Trinidad Steinert y María Paz Arzola participaron en la cita, enfocada en hechos como el ataque fatal a una inspectora y bombas molotov en un colegio.

A las 15:30 horas de este martes 31 de marzo, los ministros de la Secretaría General de la Presidencia, José García Ruminot; de Seguridad Pública, Trinidad Steinert; y de Educación, María Paz Arzola, junto a subsecretarios, se reunieron para discutir la escalada de violencia en establecimientos educacionales.

Entre los incidentes destacados figuran el ataque mortal de un estudiante a una inspectora y el lanzamiento de bombas molotov dentro de un colegio.

Tras la reunión, García Ruminot informó que el Ejecutivo ingresará "uno o dos proyectos de ley" el lunes o martes, a más tardar, para combatir esta situación. "Tenemos mañana miércoles y jueves para trabajar en este conjunto de medidas para garantizar mayor protección, mayor seguridad en los establecimientos educacionales", subrayó el ministro.

Las iniciativas buscan tramitación rápida: una agravaría penas por delitos en colegios y la otra permitiría revisiones de mochilas y monitoreo. "Nos interesa que sean proyectos que tengan tramitación rápida. Son herramientas que queremos que estén a disposición de los colegios lo más pronto posible. La seguridad no puede esperar", agregó García Ruminot.
