In July this year, a case was registered against a private school teacher in the national capital after he reportedly beat up a student in a merciless manner. As per Indian Express, a student of class VI was allegedly beaten up by his teacher, after a group of students were found to be involved in a fight in the school. The family members of the student had filed a complaint against the school teacher.“A medical examination of the child was conducted and doctors described the injuries as simple and blunt abrasions on the back. A case under IPC Section 323 has been registered against the teacher, who has been identified,” DCP (southeast) Romil Baaniya was quoted as saying by the paper.

According to the police, a group of students were allegedly involved in a fight over a petty matter. When the matter was reported to the teacher, he called the students and allegedly beat up the 13-year-old  with a stick. After the student reached home, his parents noticed red marks on his back, following which they took him to a hospital, Indian Express said.
