Shivamogga: Complaint filed against teacher over alleged “Go to Pakistan” remark on Muslim students
Shivamogga: A teacher employed at the Government Urdu School in Tippu Nagar is facing allegations of verbally abusing students, reportedly telling them, "This is not your country; go to Pakistan." The incident was brought to light when Nazulla, the JD(S) minority division’s district incharge, learned of the matter and subsequently filed a complaint with the education department's senior officer.
Nazulla expressed deep concern over the incident at the school, where students had a dispute over minor issues. Instead of providing guidance during this situation, it is alleged that the teacher made the divisive remarks, stating, "This is not your country; this is a Hindu country. You should go to Pakistan. You will always be our slaves." He reported the incident to the authorities, who assured him that appropriate action would be taken against the teacher. He also called for the immediate suspension of the teacher by senior officials.
However, according to the district education officer, Nagaraj, the teacher had been working at the Tippu Nagar government school for the past 7-8 years without any prior complaints. The outburst towards the students occurred suddenly, with the teacher scolding them for not paying attention. In response to the incident and based on the children's statements, the teacher was voluntarily reassigned to a different duty.

CM Omar Abdullah rushes to Jammu after Pakistan's failed drone attacks
Jammu (PTI): Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah left for Jammu on early Friday to take stock of the situation following last night's failed drone attack by Pakistan.
India on Thursday night neutralised Pakistan military's attempt to hit military stations in Jammu, Pathankot, Udhampur and some other locations with missiles and drones as tensions soared between the two countries amid fears of a wider military conflict.
"Driving to Jammu now to take stock of the situation after last night's failed Pakistani drone attack directed at Jammu city and other parts of the division," Abdullah said in a post on X.
He also said the government will review the decision to shut schools on Monday.
The situation at the time will determine if the closure is extended and, if so, for how long, the chief minister said.
Jammu and Kashmir Education Minister Sakina Itoo on Thursday ordered the closure of schools for the next two days in view of the prevailing situation.
Sirens and numerous explosions were reported in Akhnoor, Samba, Baramulla and Kupwara and several other places on Thursday night.
After the Indian military foiled the Pakistani attempts, the defence ministry said India remains "fully prepared to defend its sovereignty and ensure the safety of its people".
