Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): A shocking case emerged from a government school in Madhya Pradesh's Jabalpur, where a female guest teacher has accused the principal of demanding sexual favours in exchange for a permanent job.
The female students have also backed the allegations and complained that the principal would often call them alone in his cabin.
The incident was reported at a government school in the Bargi Nagar area of Jabalpur. Students, along with the teacher, NSUI members, and others, have filed a complaint against the principal on Tuesday. They have also submitted a memorandum to the SP of Bargi Nagar police.
