A viral video shows Jyoti holding her son’s plastered hand and describing his pain. The clip also includes an X-ray report. She says teachers supported the accused instead of helping her child.

The accused teacher, Anurag, denies the assault. He says two girls reported harassment by two boys, including Divyanshu. After speaking to them, he gave the boys a light cane punishment. He says he never hit anyone hard enough to cause a fracture. The stress, he says, has affected his health, and he is now in the hospital.

The school headmaster supports his version. He says the boy stayed in class until the final bell. According to him, a child with a broken arm could not continue school like a normal student. He calls the family’s allegations false.

According to parents, Loknath Jadhav, the lone teacher at the Zilla Parishad school, sent a group of students to fetch water from a spring located nearly one to two kilometres away. When the students returned after a delay, Jadhav allegedly beat them severely. Terrified, several other students abandoned the school premises and ran into the surrounding forest out of fear.

Parents claim that despite bringing the issue to the attention of the Panchayat Samiti’s administrative department, no action was taken. Locals later lodged a complaint with the Group Education Officer, accusing the teacher of regularly assigning non-academic chores to students, neglecting teaching duties, and severely mistreating children. With no response from senior officials, parents have now warned of a sit-in protest.

The school, which caters to Classes 1 to 8 and has 96 enrolled students, reportedly suffers from severe mismanagement due to being run by a single teacher. Parents allege that Jadhav frequently arrives late, remains absent on Saturdays, and spends excessive time on his mobile phone.

The incident comes shortly after another tragedy in Palghar district, where a Class 6 student died after allegedly being forced to do 100 sit-ups for arriving late.

Responding to the latest allegations, Education Officer (Primary) Sonali Matekar confirmed that a team has been dispatched to investigate. District CEO Manoj Ranade also said that instructions have been issued for a detailed inquiry.

As the probe moves forward, parents await firm action to ensure student safety and restore trust in the school’s functioning.

Students claimed Patil had confided in a school counsellor that he was experiencing suicidal thoughts. They alleged he had been “tortured” for the past six months and subjected to repeated humiliation by certain teachers. Many said teachers often “body shamed”, “mocked”, and “insulted” students for minor issues. One student recounted an incident during dance practice where Patil was publicly ridiculed in front of Headmistress Aparajita Pal.

Shourya’s father, Pradeep Patil, said his son was “publicly humiliated” on the day he took his life after he slipped during rehearsals. He alleged a teacher taunted Shourya as he cried on stage. The grieving father also named three teachers — Julie Vargis, Manu Kalra and Yukti Mahajan — accusing them of threatening or mistreating his son. None of the teachers or the school administration has responded so far.

The suicide note revealed Patil’s deep emotional distress and overwhelming guilt. He apologised repeatedly to his mother, father and brother, writing that he could no longer cope with the behaviour of some teachers. He also requested that his organs be donated “if in a condition to work.”

As the school faces mounting questions over student welfare and allegations of misconduct, authorities have yet to issue an official statement. The investigation into the teenager’s tragic death continues.

According to the police, the teacher hit the student in anger after she misbehaved in class. Initially, Sathvika’s mother, a Science teacher at the same school, did not recognize the seriousness of the injury. However, when Sathvika began complaining of severe headaches and dizziness, she was taken to multiple hospitals. Eventually, a CT scan at a private hospital in Bengaluru confirmed that she had a skull fracture.

The family has filed a complaint against both the teacher and the principal, leading to a police investigation. Punganur police have registered a case and begun probing the incident.

In a separate incident, a teacher in Visakhapatnam was accused of breaking the arm of a Class 8 student. The teacher allegedly struck the student’s arm with an iron table, causing multiple fractures.
