Headmaster in J'khand's Garhwa suspended for dancing with students on 'vulgar' song
Garhwa (PTI): A school headmaster in Jharkhand's Garhwa district was suspended and departmental proceedings initiated against two assistant teachers for allegedly dancing with students on a "vulgar" song, an official said on Saturday.
The action came after a purported dance video went viral on social media, in which the headmaster and two assistant teachers are seen dancing with students, including girls of class 8, during a farewell function.
The incident happened at an upgraded middle school, Sohbaria, in Meral block of the district on March 1.
