A teacher of the Education Department of the Ramamani Mahavidyalaya in Khordha district was arrested for ‘biting’ a student of the college on Friday.
According to reports, the accused, Ashutosh Mahapatra, had misbehaved with a few students 15 days ago and the students had informed the Principal about the matter.
Acting on the complaint of the students, the Principal had asked Mahapatra not to come to the college. But on Friday, the teacher came to the college which was opposed by the students. In a fit of rage, Mahapatra bit a finger of a student.
Later, the students broke the vehicle of the teacher and created ruckus in the college. Soon, the Principal locked Mahapatra in a room and informed the Begunia police, which arrested him.
“If the Principal had taken action against the Mahapatra earlier, this situation would not have occurred today,” alleged students.
