Dance teacher loses job over misbehaviour

Parents of a Class V student at the Presidium School in Ashok Vihar alleged that the school's dance teacher misbehaved with their daughter on Friday. The school authorities terminated the teacher's services immediately and registered a complaint with the north-west district police.

The student alleged that the dance teacher, Neeraj Rawat, behaved inappropriately with her. He allegedly told the child: "I will remove your identity card, then your shirt, and then your skirt."

The matter was reported to the head of the school, who then asked the disciplinary committee to investigate the matter. On the committee's recommendations, Rawat's services were terminated on Saturday. He had joined the school on September 1.
