It is a said news that a girl who went to school to study and learn something had to face this. We should offer our sincere condolences to her family.
Unfortunately some of our news channels too busy in making it questions of online poll. I saw on one of the news website from delhi, question is
"Should the teacher who tortured Shanno for homework be treated as a criminal?"
and the overwhelming answer is YES as expected. It is weird that the media and people have already decided to punish the teacher as criminal. This kind of voices are coming again and again. Last week it was in case of Ajmal Qasab. Who we are to decide if someone is criminal or not? It is the matter for the court to decide. Otherwise what is the difference between us and the Taliban.
First of all in this case, no one has seen any evidence against the teacher. There is no medical report yet to suggest that she died of head injuries. On top of that is it not a common practice in India for the teachers to punish the pupils. To some extent all of us will defend this. or are we in favour or bringing legislation that bans any form of punishment for the pupils by the teachers or even parents?
Question for the debate can be how education can be provided to the next generation. We need to reduce the burden on the teachers. We need to provide better facilities for the schools. Are we not aware of poor conditions of the public schools in India and the generally, municipality run schools are considered as lower caste schools in the education hierarchy.
At the moment, we should give space to the family of shanno khan to bear the pain of losing their little sweet daughter.

What's wrong with these people? How can they torture a little girl for a stupid issue? Two hours in sun with bricks on her shoulders? WTF is wrong with that teacher.
ReplyDeleteI don't care what that little kid did, the teacher should be put in jail for life for this, not just dismissing her...
It's really heart pounding to learn about this kid and that some folks can be this cruel.
I hope the teacher who did this rots in jail for rest of her life, she has no place in this society.
Giving her life imprisonment is probably too harsh by the Indian law because she has not murdered her.
ReplyDeleteBut if she proved guilty, she must be prosecuted. It will send strong signal and hopefully this kind of incidence will not happen again.
