A student from class 8 received corporal punishment from his teacher and was hung upside-down from balcony on the second floor. His parents have received assurances from the school administration that the responsible teacher will be disciplined after an investigation and a report is given to superiors.
The principal of Patan’s M. N. High School, Vasant Patel stated that the student’s parents Chandrikaben and Prahladbhai Raval had complained on Friday that their son had received corporal punishment from teacher Mayank Patel and hung for a period of time from the second floor of the school because he was making mischief in class.
He has assured the parents that if the teacher treated the student inhumanely an investigation will be carried out, a report will be made to the appropriate authorities,and action will be taken.
The parents claimed that Mayank Patel had punished the student. They complain that the teacher could have disciplined their son or even told them about indiscipline if their son had been acting naughtily in class.
The student claims that this is not the first time, Mayank Patel beats all students, including girls. But this time the teacher allegedly beat the student on his back for a while in addition to hanging him upside down.
