In a disturbing incident at a pre-secondary school in Seegana village of Agra, Uttar Pradesh, a video has surfaced showing the principal physically assaulting a teacher, Gunjan Choudhary, purportedly for arriving late to school. The video, which has gone viral on social media, captures a heated altercation between the principal and the teacher, accompanied by the principal’s driver.
The footage shows the principal grabbing the teacher by her kurta while accusing her of attempting to tear her clothes during the confrontation. The teacher’s attempts to free herself are met with resistance, with the driver also joining in and engaging in physical aggression towards the teacher.
A voice in the background can be heard expressing concern over the principal’s behavior and remarking on the inappropriateness of the situation. The teacher reportedly sustained injuries during the altercation, as claimed by a colleague who witnessed the incident.
The conflict escalated further with both women resorting to vulgar language and derogatory remarks, which are unbecoming of their roles within the educational institution. The principal and the teacher exchanged heated words, with the teacher challenging the principal and her driver.
In response to the incident, the principal filed a police complaint against the injured teacher, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
This incident comes in the wake of recent similar occurrences in Uttar Pradesh schools, indicating a concerning trend of violence and misconduct within educational settings. The use of physical force, coupled with inappropriate language and behavior, reflects a disregard for professionalism and proper conduct, raising questions about the management and culture within the school.
