A detailed probe is underway after the FIR was registered against Soni under relevant sections of the SC/ST Atrocities Prevention Act.

LUCKNOW: The principal of a primary school in Vanpurwa Gaderi gram panchayat of Amethi district of UP made students belonging to the Scheduled Castes sit in different queues during the mid-day meals on the school premises.

An FIR has been registered and the school principal has been suspended. 

A parent has also accused the principal of beating up the students. “Teacher Kusum Soni beat up students. For meals, separate queues are made for students belonging to upper castes and Scheduled Castes,” said Narayan, one of the parents, claiming that he belonged to a Dalit community.

However, the principal, Kusum Soni, got a complaint registered against the village head Vinay Kumar Jaiswal for creating a ruckus on the school premises and locking the gates, while refuting the allegations levelled against her.
