The Bihar education department has suspended teacher Ratan Lal Saini and headmistress Kalawati Kumari of Lalu Chapra Middle School in Paru block over accusations of indecent behavior and inappropriate touching of female students.
Muzaffarpur district officials announced the suspension of a teacher and the headmistress of Lalu Chapra Middle School, located in the Paru block of Bihar. The education department acted after receiving complaints that the teacher, identified as Ratan Lal Saini, and the headmistress, Kalawati Kumari, had engaged in indecent conduct and inappropriately touched female students.
The department issued an order for immediate suspension pending a departmental inquiry, citing the seriousness of the allegations and the need to protect the safety of students. Both officials have been relieved of their duties while the investigation proceeds.
The school, which serves a mixed student body from the surrounding rural areas, has not released a detailed statement, but the administration confirmed cooperation with the authorities. Parents and community members have expressed concern over the incident and are awaiting the outcome of the probe.
If the inquiry substantiates the claims, further disciplinary action, including possible termination and legal proceedings, could follow under Bihar’s education and criminal statutes.
