School teacher beats student in Ahmedabad

A teacher brutally thrashed a student at Madhav Public School in the Vatva area of Ahmedabad. The incident was caught on camera, which has since gone viral.

The CCTV footage shows the teacher dragging the student from his seat and repeatedly slapping him and banging his head against the wall.

The student was sitting at his desk when the teacher went close to him, pulled him by the hair and dragged him to the centre of the class, where he proceeded to slap him repeatedly. The teacher then banged the student’s head against the wall.

Once the incident came to light, the District Education Officer (DEO), Rohit Chaudhary, issued a notice to Madhav Public School, demanding an explanation.

According to reports, the teacher has been identified as Abhishek Patel, who taught mathematics. The school has since suspended Patel.

Sachin Prajapati, a trustee of Madhav School, said, “The teacher brutally beat the student and banged his head against the wall. The DEO has also sought an explanation from the school. The teacher was suspended on the same day the incident occurred. The school principal has also been suspended for failing to maintain discipline. We will explain this to the DEO’s office. No such complaint has been received against the teacher before, and we assure that such incidents will not be repeated in the future.”

Prajapati added, “We will train teachers and advise them not to bring their personal issues to school, and to interact with students amiably.”
