Hamirpur, August 8

A government school teacher has been booked for allegedly beating students in Hamirpur district, police said on Monday.

The teacher was posted as a trained graduate teacher at Navodaya Vidyalaya in Doongri.

The matter came to the fore after some Class 7 students approached their parents and alleged that they were mercilessly beaten up by the teacher on August 5. As a result, the parents reported the matter to the acting principal of the school, Nishi Goel.

On the complaint of the principal, a case was registered against Prakash Chand under Sections 341 (punishment for wrongful restraint) and 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal Code at Bhoranj police station, Superintendent of Police Akriti Sharma said.

Further investigation into the indictment is under way, she added.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
