A school teacher in the Utrethia district of Lucknow was suspended after the CCTV cameras verified her assaulting a Std. III student when he did not stand up after his name was called out during the attendance.

Ritesh, a student of St. John Vaidyanya School, was sitting on the first seat when the teacher started calling out her pupils.
