An 11-year-old boy was so badly thrashed by his teacher for not completing a drawing assignment that his face is partially paralysed and his eyesight, too, has been affected. A Pune school has terminated the teacher's services and the police have arrested him after the parents filed a police case.

The boy's father spoke to a reporter of this paper citing that he noticed his son's swollen face when he came to pick him up from the school hostel. Consequently, the family was horrified when they saw the extent of the boy's injuries wherein the teacher had made this boy put his hands on a bench and then used his knuckles to beat him repeatedly on his head, slapped him several times and then pinched him under his arms and on his stomach.
