The father of the child has alleged that the teacher beats his child up and makes children sit in separate queues for upper castes and Dalits during midday meals.While speaking to ANI, Jeev Narayan, the parent said, " A teacher named Kusum Soni beats my children because he belongs to the lower caste.

As far as the false allegations are concerned, one Pawan Dubey, claiming to be village head's representative had come here and pushed everyone out and locked gates. He clicked the school's pictures and posted them on social media mentioning the discrimination against the students. I have filed a police complaint regarding this matter.""The majority of the students belong to Schedule Castes (ST), others are Other Backward Class (OBC). Only four students from the general category. We are following the social distancing during midday meals and people are taking this thing in a wrong way," she added.The village head, Vinay Kumar Jaiswal, said, "Some parents and students had come with the complaints of discrimination.
