Bagalkot, December 14: An assistant teacher at the Government Higher Primary School in Shirur, Bagalkot taluk, locked up the headmistress and beat her up in front of students on Tuesday.
Following a complaint lodged by headmistress Suvarna Gurappa Kanti and School Development and Monitoring Committee chairperson Siddappa Vaddar, block education officer N Y Kundaragi suspended assistant teacher Siddappa Ramappa Kadviala. He has been charged with misbehaving with colleagues, abusing them and regular absenteeism.
Speaking to Deccan Herald, Kanti said Siddappa abused and assaulted her when she questioned him why he went on leave without seeking permission. “I have been suffering mental torture at his hands for the last two years. He had tried to assault me twice, last year too. This was brought to the notice of the BEO, who had warned him against such behaviour,” she said.
