A government school teacher in Rajasthan’s Udaipur district has been suspended after reportedly forcing a Class 9 student to cut, skin, and clean a chicken during an examination. The shocking incident has triggered outrage among locals and authorities alike.
According to a report by PTI, Mohanlal Doda, a teacher at a government school in the Kotada area, allegedly asked student Rahul Kumar Pargi to abandon his exam midway and clean a chicken, which Doda intended to take home. Following widespread protests from villagers, state minister Babulal Kharari directed Sub-Divisional Officer Hasmukh Kumar to conduct an inquiry.
The investigation confirmed the accusations, with officials stating that Doda had indeed pressured the student during school hours. Further reports from locals revealed that the teacher had dismissed the school cook about a month ago, depriving students of mid-day meals since then. Based on the inquiry findings, the district education officer suspended Doda from duty.
